Best Wishes - DCBD #218

The colors for this challenge:  So Saffron, Baja Breeze and Regal Red.  here
These are very spring like colors - unlike the weather outdoors.  Last night we had blizzard conditions and got a dumping of about 6 cm of snow in a short period of time.  With the wind blowing it was hard to see the road at times.  Towards 8 p.m. it started to rain - so I hurried out to shovel.  Wet snow is so heavy!!!  Soon I was running out of room at the back of the driveway to toss the snow.  The snowbank was over 7 feet high, so I had to push it to the front.  The process took me 1 1/2 hours.
During the night the temperature rose above zero, and now its raining.  What a mess!! I'm glad I shovelled last night.
Okay, now that I've complained about the weather and having to shovel the white stuff, here's the card for the Diva Coffee Break Design challenge:

Stamps: Baby Blossoms, Easter Blossoms, Sincere Salutations
Inks: Regal Rose, Baja Breeze, So Saffron, Basic Black
Papers: Baja Breeze, Very Vanilla, Regal Rose
Accessories: Elegant Lines embossing folder, rhinestones, clear embossing powder, Scallop edge punch

The "designer paper" was made by stamping baby blossoms in Regal Rose, Baja Breeze, and dots in So Saffron.
The image of the girl was stamped with Regal Rose and embossed with clear embossing powder - then cut out and placed on the frame stamp with dimensionals.
