Tell me what your favorite part of Spring is. I love getting to know my readers.
Spring is my favorite season in the Midwest, United States. I love it when the weather begins to warm up, the flowers start to emerge out of the ground, and the trees being to bud. I love flower beds and I can't wait till it is warm enough to get outside to clean up my flower.
I will draw a winner on Tuesday.

What a great card. Love the colors. So clean & neat. My favortie part of Spring would be the Spring foward rather than fall back, because it is stays lighter at the end of the day, so I can spend more time outside. I like that there are more pretty flowers blooming around in spring and the occasional spring shower is always nice. Hugs, francine

The shamrock is adorbs!
ReplyDeleteI can't ever decide which I like most: Spring or Summer. Spring means yard work and getting outside finally - I love landscaping!! It also means baseball season. Summer means laying out by the pool with a foo-foo drink (or sometimes just a big glass of iced tead). Oh and cook outs!! Gosh, I can't decide.
