April Showers

I’m all muddled up with me days after our long Easter w/end..were in the middle of April already  I dont know
how  the wks go so swiftly.. even tho I’m at home all day meaning retired..still not enough hrs. in the day.
I had a play with me bunny image, well I have another couple of images ready to make in to cards..
This stamp is called “Puddle Fun” HMPR1062 quite a large stamp so not much room for embellies..
Coloured with markers & prisma pencils I used some glossy accents on the puddle & rain but its not
showing too well,  DP is from BasicGrey Kioshi pad. lovely pale fresh spring colours. I used MS
 border punch (only a bit showing) M/box heart border die. Mag. swirl die. pearls from stash..
