Spring is in the air!

The sun is shining this morning & no clouds as far as the eye can see... I think this is only the second time in the past month that this could be said! lol! It has been a weird weather year so far & I am soooo very tired of being cold! There were a few snow flakes floating in the air the other morning & the weather man said to expect the same this coming weekend, I sure hope he turns out to be a liar! Hee hee!
Well on to business... I am a sucker for ATC's & really enjoy making them so when I found the new site ATC Challenges I really wanted to play along. Their first challenge is an "anything goes" theme so I went very "springy" with my creation.

The image is from Bugaboo & I colored with my Bic markers & some chalk then added a few spots of Glossy accents. The background DP is from  DCWV Sweet Stack, the rest were out of my scrap pile. The flower is from CTMH & I inked it w/ Cotton Candy ink. Pearls are Recollections, & I used Nautical blue ink from Martha Stewart on the edges of the blue dp & the watercan image. I sponged on CTMH Sky & Creme Brulee inks around the image

I am also entering on the following challenges:
Catch the Bug, Anything Goes
Crazy4Challenges, May Flowers
Simon Says Stamp & Show, Anything Goes
My Grafico, Anything Goes
The STamping Boutique, Circles
Going Gray w-Scrap Creations, Circles
