One seed can start a garden, one candle can light a room, one step can begin a journey, one conversation can start a friendship, one smile from a handmade card can lift one's SPIRIT!

The Challenge & Card Conncept

You know I am just loving the sketches provided by Lesley at Always Playing with Paper
and this time I decided to join it with the Card Concept challenge # 8...use and umbrella
The sentiment and umbrella are from Wplus9,
the pattern paper is Doodlebug:  Hello Spring
 
 
Thanks for taking a look, I have a full weekend of volleyball. 
It is the regional championships, both granddaughters are playing in the same location,
and fortunately it is in town at the Portland convention Center!
At least we don't have an hour drive (or more!) to get there!
Have a great weekend everyone!
Heart Hugs,
Colleen

This is such a sweet card. I love the paper you chose, and how you paper pieced your umbrella--or is it stamped? Either way, it is bright and cheery and looks great on the card.
