PTI Blog Hop - February 2014

This month's PTI Blog Hop is about being inspired by spring.  I've been wanting to use the Birds and Blooms anniversary set, so I played with it today.  I cruised some of the original design team projects and then realized that I must have been inspired by this card by Betsy.
