And what does the Lord require of you but to do justly, and to love kindness
and mercy, and to humble yourself and walk humbly with your God? (Micah 6:8)

Dear Friend

Hello Friends!  With all the ice and freezing temperatures we've been having, I am ready for Spring.  Since Spring is still a little more than a month away, I decided to create a little bit of Spring.

Creative Nugget: I found this background in my stash that was created with a stencil, Distress Oxide inks, and a little stamping using the Typewriter Text Background by Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps.  I created a second panel using the same colors to coordinate with the background.  Both panels were cut with SB Matting Basics dies.  A pair of daffodils from the new Spring Blossoms stamp set just released by SNSS was colored with Copic Markers and cut with my ScanNCut.  Part of the sentiment from the same set was white embossed on a hand cut banner. The design for the card was inspired by the Freshly Made Sketch for this week.
This card will also be submitted for the following Challenges:

Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge - TTTC034 (Die Cut, Emboss, Floral)
Thanks so much for stopping by...hope you enjoyed a little bit of spring!

Hugs,
Cathymac

This is so pretty! Really like your color combo!
I know you mean about this weather. Yesterday, we couldn't even get our car out of our small driveway. The wheels kept spinning on ice. One of our very nice neighbors came to our rescue!
