I am enjoying the sights of spring showcased in the Pals Spring Hop because this is what I see from my back porch. My daughter is standing on the sidewalk behind our hedges and there is a street somewhere behind her!
For my sweet silhouette girl, I combined the sketch at Stamping411 with the Play Date Cafe's Color Challenge to use black, white and a splash of color. I needed a shot of Melon Mambo to escape all the whiteness around me!
And since I am yearning for a bit of green I thought I would send you a Happy St. Patrick's Day wish! I followed the sketch from Create with Connie and Mary and added a bit of gold to my lucky shamrocks.
No worries about snow on your next stop - you are headed south to Martha Stewart's. I know she has a delightful spring design in store for you!

what a fun silhouette design for the colour splash Linda! Thanks for playing along with us at the Play Date Cafe :)
Love your silhouette card. She is adorable.
Your card is so sweet & pretty! Love the dark silhouette with a pop of color! Thanks for playing along with Stamping 411 this week :)
Your cards are both beautiful! And that snow.....you can keep! I'm posting photo's today from our ice storm. So glad you joined us at CCMC!
Nice Linda,
I love the Square Lattice look on this card and the gold and green are a perfect combination!
LInda, that snow is AMAZING! Oh, my goodness. You won't be seeing daffodils for a while, huh? Oh boy. Well, anyway, love your splash of Melon Mambo to help you think spring thoughts. :) Thanks for playing with us at the Play Date CAfe - I'm truly glad you popped over there.
These cards are wonderful! I love your St. Patrick's card! The perfectly placed beads in each scallop are wonderful! And I love the look of the gold ribbon! Thanks for joining us at Create with Connie and Mary!
Very nice cards. The Melon Mambo looks great with the black & white. I love the gold ribbon with the shamrock card and the embossed background. TFS
Okay! I laughed outloud when I saw that picture of your poor daughter in the snow! I know I shouldn't have but you are too funny! Man...that is a lot of snow! Both cards are so pretty, that Play Date card really pops, love the Mambo!
I really like both cards! Nice and cherry for a snowy day. Like others, love the contrast of the Melon Mambo and black too.

Hi Linda,
Both your cards are just so beautiful. I love the black, white melon mambo combo ( sounds like a song) and your addition of gold to the St. Patrick's day card is just fabulous. I love that ribbon! Ahhh snow in March. That is one thing I do not miss about New York. Hope you stay warm and cozy while stamping.
I am so loving both of these, Linda! The perfect St. Patty's Day card! XOXO
That is a LOT of snow!! Oh my! Glad you could bring a touch of spring into your life through the cards. Both are wonderful.
LOVED, LOVED, LOVED the pic of the snow...what stamp did you use for the shamrocks?
I am not sure which card I love more. Great work, love the punch of gold on the St Patrick's card. And the other one is just beautiful! Thanks for sharing your wonderful creations!
