Spring is coming

I can't even tell you how I made this background. I was experimenting with water-based markers on Yupo paper, I kept adding too much water, but you can wipe Yupo off and start over. Did that about 4 times. When I finally got the effect I wanted, I needed to seal it with fixative because it kept smearing, but that didn't go too well, most of the watercolor texture is gone. Still, a rather grainy weird texture was left in its place, so I just added plain white diecuts for a cheery card. To all of you snowed under, hang on! Spring is coming. Bird and tulip dies by @crafterscompus, sentiment die and stamp by @simonsaysstamp.
