This is such a sweet image!

Created for me and especially
for these Challenges

the Weather:
April
showers have bought May flowers
I have been holding onto my
Tim Holtz Paper Dolls since December but now that I have finally
opened up my packet I have sorted them out so that I get to keep my
favourite ones by using them on projects that are for me, lol, i.e.
not greeting cards!
The background of my postcard
was an experiment, using Distress re-inkers, and I have to say I
really like the look, so will be making more of these in future.
Once the background was created I attached a snippet of texture paste
background at the bottom for the lady and her son to stand on. I
painted the raindrops by hand and although they are uneven I don’t
mind that. Learning to embrace the imperfections and fall in love
with them I am lol! Thank you so much for taking the time to visit
and comment. I really do appreciate it and I hope you get some time
to do what you love to do soon ttfn Karen x
