Another dreary rainy day here in the Chicago area - instead of "April showers bring may flowers" I'm singing "rain rain go away come back another day". Do you remember all the rhymes from your childhood? Jumping rope was a big deal when I was a kid - I never mastered double dutch but I do remember a few of of the songs... remember Miss Mary Mac? Oh come on now!!!!! All dressed in Black... With Silver Buttons.... All Down Her Back?..... OK I'll stop now.
Well I don't jump rope anymore - but I still play a few games. Today I'm playing along with The Cloud 9 Blog Hop. Check out the inspiration photo here - what a beautiful table setting. I picked up on the pretty flowers and colors - and a pop of yellow since I can't have a sunny day - I will settle for a smile! If you want to play along you better hop to it! The challenges are posted once a month on the 9th and you have until 10 am on the 12th to enter. Great way to get stamping with those WPLUS9 stamps and you just might win a free set - can't beat that. Oh and did I happen to mention guest designer this month and winner from last time - my friend Vickie Zimmer - I hope you'll check out her design - she made two for us!

absolutely gorgeous stamping and color combo. Is it Spring yet?!?!?! Your card makes me wish it!
Love what you can do with these stamps, makes me see them in a whole new way! Yes
I remember jump rope songs, one that always comes to mind is “Not last night but the night before ……
Only have a few set and hoping my new ones come tomorrow! Kinda hard to use a pumpkin or a Christmas tree!
Gorgeous card. love the navy blue you incorporated with the springy color.
gorgeous!! love your little pop of yellow and dot of green!! perfect!!
Such a fantastic mix of stamps, my dear! Really LOVE the primary colors to bits! Way to rock those Wplus9 goodies!
Girl...you are sooooo sweet!! Wondering why I have a yellow BG in my pics....made the colors pop IRL but...not so good on the web!! I absolutely remember jumprope and the songs....even taught my girls....well, the younger one not so much...she was a tomboy and the nimble one of the bunch!! Hope the sun starts shining soon....we're getting the boat ready to rip....80's and sunshine here!!
Wow-this is just gorgeous. I'm trying to figure out if those red flowers are stamped or patterned paper? Your card is like a breath of spring. Sorry about your rain.
Stunning, Jeanne! I "quite like" how you stamped the flower background!!
Beautiful card Jeanne, love those colours and fabulous stamping!
Our rain turned to ice today so I'm so glad to see your gorgeous spring card! LOVE the red & blue with a touch of yellow!
There's that signature Jeanne bow! It is the star and your stamping is just breathtaking.....just wish Spring would show its face for good here!!!
Jeanne, as always this is just beautiful! That bow is fabulous too...with that sweet stick pin and touch of green.
Gorgeous! I love how you interpreted the inspiration picture - that big bow and green button just wrap it up perfectly. Thanks for joining us at Cloud9, love that you play along!
