Flourishes--Winter Thaw...looking forward to spring!



I don't really have the flowers that BREAK through the snow...but at least I do have a spring flower that I always look forward to. We have 5 lilac bushes in our yard and we constantly have them on our dining table during the summer. It helps that my littlens love to pick things! :)
I also used to colors from the challenge as well.
Supplies:
Green, black, purple CS from SU
Copic markers
cuttlebug folder
ricrack from my local sewing shop
SU retired black organdy ribbon
Nesties
Antique linen distress ink
No sentiment as I am unsure what I am going to use this for...or whom...but I promise I will not hord it as I am trying to do an anit hording thing as a new years res... no hording calories, fat, paper, food (overstocking...dont forsee a drought or grocery store collaspe coming...) and of course, the cards I make. I have a hard time giving them away...don't know why. mine mine mine. Guess I am just a bit selfish....or worried they will not treasure them as I do, or won't like them....which would be worse! Anyways....thanks for looking!

I absolutely LOVE lilacs. We moved recently from a home that had a whole row of lilac bushes and oh my... there is nothing like the scent! Thanks for playing with us gals over at Flourishes and thanks for sharing this beauty of a card!
