* Follow to the end today and I have a freebie for you :)
The rain beats on my livingroom window here in the holler, and I am delighted to see it wash away some of the snow that has laid on the ground for weeks now. Listening to a little classical music (Mendelssohn's Spring Song link above) on this the first day of March, I long to say good-bye to winter for it seems like Mother Nature has been in hibernation for far too long. We do have a slight chance of seeing more snow tonight but since the first "official" day for spring is still several weeks away, I remain optimistic that the daffodils and lilacs will be blooming soon.
Speaking of daffodils and lilacs, I am reminded of those when I saw CathyK Designs' newly released kit,
SPRING HAS SPRUNG. This collection is perfect for celebrating the beginning of Spring!
Spring Has Sprung - Kit includes 21 papers (14 patterns and 8
solids),banner, 2 berry stems, bird, birdhouse, chevron border, tulip
border, butterfly, silver button, vintage flowers card, charm, confetti
(shadowed and unshadowed), doily, fence, 9 flowers, 4 frames, 2 journal
cards, 3 leafy sprigs, 3 gessoed leaf elements (arrow, bird, burst),
paint, 5 ribbons, ricrac, crochet trim, ruffle trim, 3 string, stitching
row, Spring has Sprung card, 3 wood veneer elements (arrow, chevron,
butterfly). Included in this collection is also a set of extra papers and a big set of alphas in coordinating colors, and as always the CathyK's newest collection is Scrap for Hire/Scrap for Others (S4H/S4O) friendly!
Of course, I wanted to play with the collection and as it turned out, I had just taken the perfect photos to use! My four month old Grandbaby Bristol participated in her first pageant yesterday. She looked so adorable in her pretty yellow and white Easter dress, white ruffle socks and hat, and white patent leather shoes! She had just gotten her immunizations the day before, and she was not feeling the best in this world so she was not our usual always-smiling Bristol but even with that, our little darling received 2nd runner up, so we were all just bursting with pride!
In closing today, I want to wish my Baby Brother a Happy Happy Birthday! I made a desktop calendar for him, just in case he forgets what day it is ;)
