Ahhhh, my daffodils have begun peeking up from the frozen earth. That Nor'Easter that is predicted to dump 5-8 inches of fresh snow surely is a figment of a meteorologist's imagination!
Behind in the challenges this week, I used Korin's lovely sketch and Michelle's suggestion to use green to make my Teaparty card.
Stamped the daffodils from Flourishes Year in Flowers 1 in Memento Tuxedo Black and colored with Copics (I used BGs like those leaves outside my family room). Partially matted with Summer Sun. Cut a deckled oval and stamped the Verve Sentiment in Evergreen Bough Distress ink. Ran some of my hoarded Handsome Hunter CS though the script EF, ran some perky baker's twine around it and mounted the components. mounted all on a Summer Sun card. PT - 1
Thanks Fran, Korin and Michelle for your wonderful inspiration. Thank you all for looking and have a peaceful day.

Marie, these daffodils are beautiful! I love this rich card, with your pretty green hoarded c/s (I do the same with mine, too) and the brilliant yellow, Beautiful!!
Marie this is rich and regal. Love the image and your lovely bg embossing. I am so ready for spring. We had rain today. Praise the Lord! We need it so badly. We are still 11 inches behind in moisture. So your card gives us a reminder of the new life to come...soon!
