Spring is Here...Time to Stamp!

Yippee!  Spring is here!  Seattle has seen 60 degrees and sunshine for the last 2 days.  I turned my rabbits loose in the yard and they are so happy.  Gotta get those Easter decorations out ASAP! It just feels like a new season around here.  I might even go out and try to start some yard clean up...now that would be something!

My March Stampin' Class is next week and I am working on some delightful spring projects for this class. This darling purse and matching notecards are the first SNEAK PEAK:
