Can't come fast enough


Spring can't come fast enough for me. I am tired of Winter, and here it is, only the middle of January! BLEAH! No more Winter themed cards for me....I am moving on!
Today I covered two challenges with one card....The WT was to add some pizazz to patterned paper. I chose this fabulous K & Co. flowered print, and added Dazzling Diamonds with a glue pen.
The other challenge was the DDC (Doubledog Dare), hosted this week by Michelle (sf9erfan). The challenge was to case a card from the old catty, and change at least two things. I have put the catty card next to mine so you can see what changed.
As I look out the window beside me at all the snow, I have to remind myself that I am so fortunate not to have to live under a bridge somewhere. I complain (a lot, says DH), but I am so grateful to be safe and warm. Aren't we the lucky ones!! Thanks for looking today, my friends.

Indeed, we are all blessed. I was feeling sorry for myself that I had to fork out $320 to fix something on the van that I can't even *see*!! But, at least I have reliable transportation and a van that is paid for.. old and reliable!
