Allsorts Challenge ~ April showers bring May flowers

The Allsorts Challenge optional theme is 'April Showers Bring May Flowers'.  As usual, you can also join in the challenge with the Anything Goes theme.

I made an easel card for my DT card.  The image is a Little Claire's 'Rainy Days' stamp, stamped with Memento 'Tuxedo Black' and coloured with Promarkers.  I add Glossy Accents to the hat, boots and puddles to add some shine.  The backgrounds are embossed with an Embossalicious 'Floral Frenzy' e/f.  I added two punched flowers and a sentiment from the Stampin' Up 'Positive Thought' stamp set. 


There are some lovely prizes to be won from WOWVOW, Oakwood Direct and Craft Stash this month.

Pop over to the Allsorts Challenge to see all the wonderful cards the DT have made. 

I am joining in the following challenges:

    For some reason I always think there's nothing prettier than a red and white card ....and I'm more of a "blue" type person too! LOL! I LOVE this one Liz! The red and white is just so classy looking and the entire card is beautiful!

    We seem to be getting May showers too so your card is apt. Flowers are coming and it is at least slightly warmer. I really like the image and how it stands out here against the red and white. Thanks for Shopping your Stash with us this time
