April Showers

We are soon coming in to the month of April, how fast hasn't this year gone so far? I am really having a hard time keeping up with things. I know it's only 21st of March yet, but give me 10 more days and we are there. I am not sure I like this period of the year. I don't like the heat and especially not the thunder that comes with it. Gives me panic attacks. Yes, that is for real. I try not to think about it, still it's present in my mind all the time. Ok, no more of that now. It is still March and we have a new challenge up for you over at the Paper Shelter.


(sorry about the Picure, we are having a totally over sunny day here, shouldn't complain should I?)


The theme we have is paper piecing. Have only made that once before, so bare with me. I have used the sweet image Sharing a rainy day and paired it up with some DP from Magnolia that has been stacked for a while. LoL The gals are coloured with the lovely Letraset Family. Some lace and flowers from WOC, a key from Pagoni and ribbon from Joanna Sheen. Pearls as always from Bunny Zoe. For the paper piecing I have used a DP from the Paper Shelter, it's the flowery part of the umbrella. I just added some stickles in the middle of the flowers. 



As always we have a gift voucher up for grabs if you take part and play with a Paper Shelter image. It's worth $20. You get three digis of your choice if you play with a different brand of images. Quite cool that too I think! You find all the links you need to get to the Shelter in my sidebar.


Love n hugs
Marie
