The gorgeous flowers was a freebie from Beccy's Place. I colored them with Copics but it really looks like water colors close up. The sentiment is from a complimentary set that the company didn't add their name to. That always has astounded me but I use the sentiments a lot. I'd give them credit if I knew where they were from. I added pearls, lace and a button embellished with purple twine from Doodlebug Designs. This one makes me smile and know that spring is on it's way... at least some time soon, I hope!
I am entering these challenges:
- Beccy's Place challenge: anything but a rectangle
- Outlawz Friday challenge: sympathy or thinking of you
- CAS on Sunday: making the rounds
- Sentimental Sunday challenge: lace and pearls
- Cutie Pie challenge: pretty pastels
- Cuttlebug Spot: cute as a button

That is just lovely Donna!
Love this fun layout- and the flowers are beautiful! The lace is a very pretty touch. Retirement...lucky you- keep us posted. I am thinking about going back to school so I can work a different job....until I am 70.....hehehe Best of luck with the weather- it is not supposed to hit here until late tomorrow night- I think we will get less snow than you- we'll see.......
Oh My...you have given me that hunger for Spring and fresh flowers with your very pretty card. Love the extra pearls! I just signed up for SS last week. I decided to take at 62...hubby is still working and will wait. I retired several years ago but still sub. We also have our youngest son in his freshman year at college and paying for 2 cars. Well, at least the house is paid for....haha The health insurance these days is the biggest scare. Definitely go to as many seminars you can get and we also talked to our finanical advisor from our bank...very helpful. My sister and DH retired so I learned a lot from the steps they took. Good luck!!!
Really pretty card. Thank you for joining in at the Cuttlebug Spot this week.
You did a great job creating a card that isn't a rectangle Donna, and I love that it's an easel as well. The flowers are coloured beautifully, and you're right, they do look a little like watercolour.
Cheers,
Beccy
