****CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED. WINNER TO BE ANNOUNCED SOON. THANK YOU SO MUCH!*****
Can you hear me hollering wherever you are??! It's the first day of SPRING!!! Oh yes, it is! And because of that I am frantically spring cleaning (and spring planting with the boys :)) because I just don't function well with clutter. Let's not even mention I have the looming deadline of Taxes and an upcoming LSS yard sale next weekend. So much to do and it all starts with cleaning and purging! As much as I hate the actual process, I love the end result of organized space and I think you will, too!

Spring has me making Bruchetta w/fresh tomatoes & basil, buying a Spring door mat for my front door, placing a pretty pink Azalea in a special pot and having guests for dinner.
Spring has me working outside helping my husband plant tons of herbs and veggies in the garden. I'm looking forward to some fresh homegrown veggies!
cleaning here too today.
Spring has me working in the yard and loving every minute. I planted 24 pansy plants and a medium size viola today.
Playing street hockey with some High School kids believe it or not!! What was I thinking???!!!
Spring has me pogo-sticking (is that a word?) with my grandson. We got him a new pogo stick for his birthday. I think he's getting the knack of it!
What a great giveaway!! Spring has me looking to cleaning out my planters to get them ready for the upcoming planting season, purging old documents and papers no longer needed and re-organizing the kids room. Now if the spring weather would come and stay awhile. :-)
We have been cleaning up the yard here and spending lots of time outdoors with the kiddos enjoying this beautiful weather!
The first thing that Spring has me doing is taking more photos than before - all those beautiful new spring blossoms and buds!!!
That and Spring cleaning, for sure.
fun! Now that spring is finally springing, I am itching to get outside....plant flowers, baseball practice, chase the dog :) Basically, just get out if the house!
Just loving it! Here is Maine we generally have to wait at least another month for spring to fully arrive, but we've been blessed with a beautiful month of March. The snow is gone, crocus are blooming and the boys are tracking mud everywhere!!
finally getting our living/dining room painted after 6 years (very high ceilings) and getting a new sofa (to replace our 11 year old one!) yah!
Spring has me organizing my scrap room! I've been winding ribbon and organizing all my BG papers today. Later this week, I hope to conquer the stickers! I feel like I'm drowning in stuff, but I've found a lot that I had forgotten I had so it's been a fun day.
Spring has me completing a scrapbook for my son who is getting married in May. He can't have mine so I have to create one for him. He is 24 years old and I am on his 4th year. Only 20 more years to go in 7 weeks! Wow, I'm going to be busy! A new pack of paper would sure help me out with this project!
Spring has me wearing my sandals!!! Yay, no more socks!!

Spring sprung for me today ! Beautiful sunshine after such a long winter here in England...so many flowers beginning to bloom ! And that meant - walking with my wonderful husband and little boy around the parklands of a nearby lake. Strolling along pathways, ducking under willow walks, throwing poo sticks into the river. For me spring is all about being outdoors again after too many winter days inside.
Spring has me hoping for brighter days and a great need to boy LOTS and LOTS of flowers!!! ;o)
Happy Spring. It feels nice that spring is here. Thanks for sharing as I love Basic Grey and this collection has all my favorite colors.

Warming my very old bones in the warm sun after four months of cold weather. The cleaning can wait for next week . . .
I have been cleaning my closet and under my bed. I have several bags of clothing for Goodwill.
The first day of Spring had me out shoveling...with all this snow, I am officially saying that winter had better be over! Our flowers are already coming up and the trees are budding. And the garden is ready for planting.
Getting out into the fresh spring air... went to have pancakes and maple syrup at a local farm...smile, 80 people before us...ugh....maybe next weekend..

Spring has planting my very first garden! It was such hard work but well worth it! My zinnia's are beautiful!
Gorgeous kit! LOVE the colors! Spring has me cleaning out everything, opening windows and freshening the house! It's great to be back outside without having to be completely bundled up and seeing everything come back to life!
Spring has me making Easter cards:-)
I'm trying to do some major spring cleaning this year ... and PURGE the excess!! Just had a scrap garage sale yesterday - it feels wonderful to get rid of stuff I don't need/use.
I'm planning a trip to a beautiful garden full of daffodils and pansies to take some family photos so I can use the GAH paper! Spring is such a wonderful time to take family photos!
Thanks, Tracy
Spring. A time of renewal. I spent the day clearing out all the old brush, listening to the birds and enjoying the sun on my face. I am serene.
Spring has me doing a little extra cleaning. I got half the walls in my house washed yesterday! Love that paper- great colors and patterns!
Spring is my favorite season. I love all the spring flowers and getting outside. We've been locked in the house with the cold, rainy, snowy, icy winter and now we are eager to play in the dirt and plant a garden.
Spring has me opening the windows, wearing brighter colors and less layers and being outside!
Opening windows and letting some fresh air in!
Spring has me doing both indoor and outdoor cleaning. Too bad the grass couldn't magically turn a beautiful bright green as all the snow melts...haha!!

The Green At Heart collection will complement my pages beautifully ~ love the colours!!! Thank you SO much for the chance to win this incredible giveaway ~ LOVE it!!
I'm busy enjoying time outside in the beautiful weather were having in Philadelphia!
Spring has us shopping for paint colors....for every room of the house!!!!! That was so much fun...now to make the final decision....
Spring means work for me - tax season! Not really my favorite time of year but I do enjoy the warmth of the sun and the hope that summer will soon follow. Good luck to all!
Spring has been strange so far! It was 72 degrees here in oklahoma on friday.... then the high was 28 with 8 inches of snow on Saturday! It helped me clean a little though, and get some things done around the house that was much needed. I am super excited about easter egg hunts with my 3 1/2 year old daughter next week. I am definitely ready for some warmer weather!
thanks for the chance to win!

We are in autumn here, but still in between seasons makes me think about taking photos of the kids throwing autumn leaves (or fall) in the air.
Spring has me planning a 1 year bday and clearing out all the baby stuff!

The weather was so gorgeous this weekend! We were down at the pond soaking up the rays and fishing. I guess the fish are not ready for spring yet, because they weren't biting!
I'm cleaning and organizing. We don't have much of a winter here in SoCal, but I'm still taking advantage of the new season to purge the clutter from my house.
I am cleaning, rearranging, and selling a ton of stuff! After inside is done, outside starts! Love the paper, too.
Springtime time means the lovely smell of flowers in a vase on the dining table
Spring has me looking forward to putting the outdoor furniture that we just bought in March on the deck that was completed in November and enjoying the pool we had installed last summer!! Can't wait:)
Spring has me thinking about spring cleaning - organizing and reducing! Keep in mind I said THINKING...not actually doing...YET!
What awesome paper, so bright and colorful, you can't help but think Spring!!
Spring is just a fantastic time for everything new, clean & green!!! Besides the necessary spring cleaning/purging, my favorite thing about spring is being able to take nice walks with the dog - everyone benefits...lol
So glad you are back and witha giveaway.
Sping has me going through a box of kleenex! Gotta love spring colds!!
spring finds me decluttering...at least trying to :)

Being a South Floridian spring has me putting away they few sweaters we were forced to wear this year and getting the bathing suits out :)
What a beautiful pack of papers!! Spring has me scrubbing my house and encouraging my kids to spend more time outside.
I am unmounting all my rubber stamps and putting them on cling foam, and spending a lot of time outside with my kids going for walks.
I'm so glad I didn't miss this! Spring has me teaching my baby how to walk. Right now, he can take three unassisted steps, and is almost on his way to walking around on his own. I like him practicing on the grass, nice cushiony softness for his tush when he falls down :) We have gorgeous weather up here right now!
Spring has me cleaning and getting ready to build our fence and hopefully a deck! I also need to get my garden and flowers planted.
Spring has me cleaning out the house so we can get ready to sell it!

Spring has me poking around the yard deciding where to plant some pretty spring posies.
I love this time of year because of the new flowers in bloom! I take so many more pictures, get out of the house, go to more scrapbooking crops, create more and just enjoy this 'sport' more than anything! Thanks for the chance to win!
Ohh..spring is my favorite time of the year. Living in Florida we only have a few weeks of gorgeous temps before the humidity creeps up on us. I am cleaning out my closet and organizing for a move in three weeks. Gah.. Where did all this stuff come from??
I just finished cleaning out my daughters' closets, drawers, and toys and selling them at a local consignment sale. It was such a great feeling getting rid of so much stuff.
Spring - mowing lawns, washing curtains, and clearing out the scrappy stash!

I am so excited about Spring this year. It seems that winter has been very long, and I am super excited about making an awesome Easter dinner for my family and my husband's family. Hopefully it will be warm enough to break out the cute Easter outfits and play games down at the park! (And when everyone is gone, I love to look at all the great Egg hunting pictures I took!)
OK, so we aren't just about to head into spring, being on the other side of the world, we are heading into autumn, boohoo. But the colours of that Basic Grey set are super yummy, so I just HAD to enter! Thanks for the chance Kelly.
spring has us outside blowing bubbles and going for walks in the neighborhood. we in ohio were blessed with temps in the 60s for the last week- now if only it will last....
Spring has inspired me to thank the Lord for this season of renewal. Azaleas are blooming everywhere I look, gorgeous pink blossoms on the tree in my front yard, mr. and mrs. cardinal sitting on my back fence. Beautiful Spring!

Here is Oz it is coming to Autumn, and I enjoyed using the weekend to unpack all the wintery baby clothes I have been saving up to put on my baby girl, she has just reached 6 months and is growing like a weed, she will grow out of some of these before it is cold enough to use them! eek! So I was super excited to unpack them and fill her drawers (though it was hard to part with some of those adorable summer dresses), oh my goodness, they grow so quickly! She was just born a minute ago it seems!
Spring has me doing the usual cleaning out of the kiddos closets and about to put a fresh coat of paint on my walls...and supervising my hubby while he builds us a new porch and breaks the ground for some new flower beds :) I *heart* spring!!!
Spring is on its away here in Western Canada but yet not warm enough to have me planting and organizing my flower beds !!
Spring has me cleaning and garedening.....but loving it! I would love to recycle more this year so I'd love to wint he green at heart and create layout about us going green.
Spring has me stocking up on some Clartins and Kleenex. :-P
With the warmer weather we have been in out backyard weeding, cutting down bushes and cleaning up what the winter has left behind.
Sorting my stash!! planning our spring retreat.
