Today is the day of Sue's (stampinspooky) "April Showers Bring May Flowers" challenge for the Challenge Your Stash group. I really love the CYS challenge, because it makes me stop and think "what have I been saving forever that I need to use?
The Inspiration site that Brenda gave us helped me choose an image. I searched for "rain" and found this cute Winnie the Pooh figurine. It reminded me of this Bugaboo image that I haven't used yet. So I colored her to match the figurine and I declared her Pooh's girlfriend. Then I masked her off and sponged some Distress inks around her. Splashed some raindrops all around for the April Showers theme. I made sure to use an embossing folder, because I never think to use them. Then I used a strip of the paper that I have a ton of left over from my wedding invitations. And I used one of the cute paper flowers that I don't like to use because I'm saving them for something. You know how that is, right?
I also used the Stella Sketch

Beautifully colored image and that fun EF you used pairs nicely with the design in your invitation paper. I like the looks of the buttoned down flower adornment ( and yes don't we ALL hoard stuff like this for something special)
