April Showers!

Good evening everyone hope you are well? Is the sun still shining for you ?  It's been gorgeous here again in Staffs and I've been making the most of it and been pottering about the garden for yet another day...luvin it! 

Onto the card I managed to sneek in inbetween gardening,lol 

Simon Says  Stamp is the 1st challenge my card  will be entered into.... the challenge is  Spring Colours or Easter,  I chose spring colours as you can see.  I chose to use  an older Tilda  cuz I thought she was perfect and I paper pieced her brolly, coat & boots/wellies.

my card

I followed the fab sketch over at  Bearly -Mine and that's the 2nd challenge I'm entering my card into, I decided not to use any DPs other than the small piece and just show the pretty colours of the textured card....hmmmm good idea/bad idea I'm not sure now but too late anyway,lol
