Today, Dawn asked us to beat those winter blues with some sparkle and shine! I needed to make a birthday card for one of my nephews. He is heading back to college for his second semester...so I thought he might like a reference to Spring Break! LOL
The image is a Bugaboo Digi and the sentiment is hand written. I did use a small snowflake stamp with ultra fine glitter, but they didn't really show up. So I punched some snowflakes out of some holographic wrapping paper. I also used a little Glossy accents on the shades.
Fun Challenge Dawn!!! Thanks for taking a peek!

Love the soft colours in the scallops - and your cute little penguin. It's so mild here; I think we need a little more winter before Spring should be here yet.

OH Kathleen, I don't know about you, but I am SO ready to move away from Christmas images. I just love that you combined our "still-winter-season" with a look toward Spring. Too bad my friends are all skiers, because they don't want winter to end! Me...one snow storm, and I'm done! LOL!
Love this adorable image and your original computer-generated words...the makings of a great card.
