Thinking about you

Hello and Happy May to you all ...
I wish it were a little warmer here but at least colour is starting to come back into the garden and the trees are slowly filling out...

I have a little card to share using my Ellie stamp again - this time paired with the umbrella ...
(I am so thrilled to say that my umbrella card Here won the Chic of the Week at Just Us Girls!)


The umbrella is actually silver mirri card ... a little hard to photograph - I just made a little cut beneath Ellie's trunk to slide the umbrella handle in


I stencilled the background with ink - green and grey is how it's been here ... lots of grey skies and rain and the beautiful fresh green leaves on the trees


If you're wondering about that umbrella die it's by Impression Obsessions

I hope you have a lovely weekend 

Till soon

~ Ros ~
