Shabby Tea Room Week 105

Hello Blogging Friends-

My hope is to get through this post before we lose our electricity! We are having one whopper of a storm-it is soooo windy and it's absolutely pouring (and that is probably an understatement)!

So, this week at Shabby Tea Room, the inspiration photo is full of spring colors-thus the theme "Spring Is Near!" (*although I can't tell right now- LOL)!

Here is my card for this week-I love the fun colors! We are being asked to use the colors in the photo and some dry embossing. I chose to do a wood grain dry emboss (taking the inspiration from the work bench the paint jars are sitting on).

Have a great day and stay dry!

Hugs Heidi
