From the Heart Stamps


Happy Tuesday!  I've got a fun card today using one of my favorite FTHS spring images, Daffodils.  I just love daffodils and I'm so ready to see some popping up around here (but I think all this snow will need to melt first).

I've used this week's sketch #98. I've messed it up a bit, I somehow missed the little flag banners. Our twist this week, if you chose to use it is colored pencils.
