Tag You're It Challenge #44

Hello friends.  Don't usually post on the weekends, but was totally inspired by Nancy Penir's tag over at the Tag You're It! Challenge.  The brightly colored flowers and leaves, the umbrella, and of course those little rainstones definitely made me think about April showers bringing May flowers!  And we could use some color here in Michigan besides white...very tired of snow, so I brought some color into my stamping room this morning!  Take a look:

 
I started with a Casual Fridays die cut tag and blended some Tumbled Glass distress ink onto it.  The flowers are from PTI's Twig Wreath & Choose Joy stamp sets and the sentiment is from Birthday Classics: April.  The umbrella is an Impression Obsession die and the DSP is from an older LOTV pad called Promises. 

Here is Nancy's beautiful tag that inspired me:


There are still a couple days to play along, and you can find all the info right HERE.

Thanks so much for stopping by today and have a wonderful weekend!  :0)
