"Bear"ing Spring Flowers

I’m doing a fairly good job of working with only images I’ve already stamped/printed and supplied within arm’s reach of my workspace. One of my main goals for 2010 is to really get organized in my crafting and USE what I have. I can’t go into any craft store (or aisle in a regular store) without finding things I have to get. Especially if it’s a good deal. I’m trying to limit my spending to quickly consumable items (adhesives mostly). I have more than enough paper, stamps, inks and embellishments). I kept this card somewhat generic so I can use it for a variety of occasions ~ birthday, love, thank you; it can fit many occasions.
