Today's challenge from Operation Write Home (http://operationwritehome.org/blog/) was to make a card with Yellow and Purple.  I made this simple card the other day with scraps I had sitting on my desk.  I thought it looked really Springy!  Maybe once all this snow melts, it will finally start to feel Springy around here!

Here's my take on today's Operation Write Home Challenge (http://operationwritehome.org/blog/) 
- usually I don't get to play along midweek, but today I don't have to work until later.  The card I am posting I actually made last week, but it fits with this week's challenge - notice the circles not only on the sentiment (which is a sticker) but also on the black background.   I used my cuttlebug to emboss the black paper with circles for extra dimension.  I think it makes such a BIG difference when I use my cuttlebug on plain background papers.  I have a lot of this music paper scraps (still quite useable size) leftover from invitations I did years ago so I wanted to find some way to accent it on cards (and use it up finally!).
