Springtime is FINALLY Here

Happy Thursday, friends.  It's a beautiful day here in NE PA.  I hope y'all are enjoying beautiful weather too.

I've been working in my craft room today and have created a couple of cards for challenges and two cards for a blog hop that is coming up with Mark's Finest Papers.

Here's one of the challenge cards:

I am so happy to be using Springtime colors.  And then to be able to look outside and see the trees budding, see the soft winds blowing.  What a wonderful sight.  And so fitting with this weekend. The Resurrection of our Lord Jesus, a new birth, a new beginning.  That's what Spring represents to me.  A new beginning. A resurrection of plants, dead throughout the winter, rising again to bloom with the creativity of a wonderful Lord.  Even the land blooms forth in praises.  What a great season.

Thank you for stopping by today.  I am so thankful that you took time out of your schedule to stop in. Have a wonderful spring day and God bless.
