Send a Smile 4 Kids April Showers Challenge

It's time for another great challenge on the Send a Smile 4 Kids Challenge Blog. The theme for this challenge is April Showers and our wonderful sponsor is Sassy Studio Designs. The winner (chosen randomly) will win 4 digital stamps of their choice from Sassy Studio Designs. The top three cards will be given a badge to display on their blogs.

I used the Mary Poppins digi from Sassy Studios to make my April Showers card. I paper pieced her entire ensemble, did a little coloring with copics and added some flower gems to complete her look. I created the "rain" with a light blue marker and also with a Sizzix embossing folder on the white card. I added 3 layers of different colored flowers- cuz you know the saying, right?  Although here in north-central Wisconsin this weekend, our April showers are going to be cold and mixed with snow:(  Spring has to come sometime, right?

Please join us in this fun challenge. You have two weeks to play along so that's plenty of time. And keep us in mind when you have extra cards for kids as we are collecting on an ongoing basis for kids in children's hospitals. See the blog for details.

I am entering this card in the Paper Playtime challenge "Weather".

Stamping smiles, Karen
