SPRING IS IN THE AIR (A NEW BEGINNING)

Good morning, can you smell it. The air is beginning to smell differently. The trees are starting to bloom the grass it starting to go from brown to green and the flowers are starting to sprout up. And the pollen is starting to harrass my nose and throat. I woke up this morning with eyes, ears and throat itching. I did not even leave the house yesterday. I will definitely need an allergy pill today. But, yes I am feeling better from yesterday and will be returning to work today. So I wanted to get this post in before it was time to leave.

Today is Wednesday and on Wednesday's the "Tellen's Place Divas" get busy. We have a new challenge for you today and to see the Design Team creations please, go on over to Tellen's Place and take a look or you can visit each of the Design Team members at their blogs which you can get to from my side bar. The theme this week is "SPRING IS IN THE AIR". Terry is giving away a free image of Jessica riding her bicycle. This is the image that I have used to make my card. But, you will have to go to Tellen' Place to get the free image.

The blue base of my card and green card stock are Bazzill, the DP which has spring time all over it is from my scrapbook stash. I don't know where half of that paper came from I have had it for so long. The sun and cloud stamp is from the Michaels $1 bin. The blooming tree is a Magnolia tree which I received in a goodie bag from a friend. But, I bet that Diana at the Magnolia-licious Online Store either has it in stock or she can order it. I'm not sure, but you can ask her.  The sentiment is one that I wrote on the computer. Jessica was colored with my Copics. And I used some different colors for the skin and hair.

Skin: E02, E31
Eyes: E37, E40
Hair: E00, E18, E25
Clothes/shoes, socks: RV00, RV02
Floweres on tree: RV02, RV00, V12, V01
Tree: E37, E11
Grass: G07
Sun: Y08, Y21
Cloud: B21, B000, B34
Bicycle: G21, G40

Well, here is my card.

I will also be entering this card into the challenge over at Sophisticat Challenge blog, their challenge is New Beginnings. What is spring if not a new beginning. It is time when things are renewed. Well, I hope that you like my card. One other challenge is the Cute Daisy May Challenge, anything goes.

Stay tuned, next week we will have something special going on. I will be back with more information soon.
