It's such a beautiful Spring day here in Central Texas that I just had to get out the the pretty pastel colors from Basic Grey's Lilykate and the Clear Dollar Stamps March Flower of the Month Daffodil set!!. This is also for Sharon Johnson's Stamp Simple #76 challenge. She and many of you are suffering from cabin fever and her challenge is to bring some signs of Spring to those of you who are cooped up in the house waiting for warmer weather. The image was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black and colored with copics. The script stamp in the set was stamped on the yellow background paper with Going Gray. The ribbon, flower, and Candy Dot finish it off. TFL and have a great day!!!

Hi Joan! I love so many things about this beautiful card. First, thank you for giving us a glimpse of what Spring looks like (we've forgotten! LOL).
I've got to say, I have that BG LilyKate dp, and was never crazy about it, until I saw how you used it with this stamp and the other papers. Beautiful! I'll have to drag it out now... ; )
I love your grey stamaped script on the yellow paper, your beautiful coloring on the daffodils, the pretty big bloom and brad and my fav? Those pretty little bow knots on the two horizontal background panels. So sweet!

Wow, this is so bright and cheery--if I still lived back east, this would have made we jump for joy with the promise of spring! I miss the daffodils--they don't like the Arizona heat. This is very beautiful, Joan!

Hi Joan! Lovely, lovely, lovely! The designer papers are a perfect compliment to your super daffodil coloring. Great work!
