The challenge this week over on the Phindy's Place Challenge Blog is to create a card or a Project with a spring or Easter Design. Since it's April, and here in the South, it seems to be raining on a more than regular basis(in fact we had a tremendous storm the afternoon I put this card together), I chose an April Showers theme. This delightful image is called "Rainy Day Friend" and is perfect for my spring April Showers bring May Flowers card. This is a great image for lots of different sentiments, from sympathy to get better soon. You can find it and a world of some of the cutest images(and I'm not just talking about the wee babbies) at the Phindy's Place Store.
The papers are from a kit called April Showers from Just So Scrappy Too. The kit wasn't free, but it was inexpensive. It had so many great papers in it, and I was also able to use some of the elements like the rainbow and the clouds. I created the sentiment in Photoshop and then Printed it on the Cloud. The sketch was one I had saved, but since I'm not at home, I can't remember who to credit for it. I cut a white picked fence out with my Cricut using my MTC software, and layed it out along the curve. I cut the flowers from the Mother's Day Bouquet cartridge to "plant" along the bottom of the fence. The last touch was the sun shaped background for my image.
Thanks for stopping by and thanks again to the Design Team at Phindy's for my making my week, and maybe even my year. It's back to camp.
