I have been so limited on time lately, it took me a very long time to finish this card. It's not my favorite card. I would not figure how to do the top panel. I was trying to show the contrast of the winter weather, wind and starkness, and the coming of spring.

Terri- this is beautiful! Even before I read your description, I could see the snow like swirls in the bg, and the contrast of the bright spring colors on the top panel. Beautiful!

You did it now Terri! WOW, I love that little tree with the little swing. It's one of my favorite sets. Will have to use it more, love the whirly wind of winter in the background cuttlebug. Some mojo! You go you "CARTES SUCR�ES" YOU! TFS
