Brollies Up


A very suitable image for today's card with all the rain we have had lately. I hate gloomy damp days, much prefer cold and crisp Winter days. At least my card is lovely and bright.  I teamed the cute Hobby House topper with MME lime twist papers and ribbon from The Ribbon Girl. I added some buttons, Memory Box die cut umbrella and a Craftwork Cards Sentiment,

Challenges
Elisabeth Bell's World Button it up 
Crafting when we can Buttons galore 
The Ribbon Girl any card
Crafting from the heart anything goes 
ABC X is for Xtreme (bright colours)
Southern Girls a bit of what you fancy (one of my favourites is Elisabeth Bell)

Hi your card cheered me up the bright colours are what we need in contrast to the dull bleak days just now. Great card.

Fabulous colour combo Marianne - super card.
I hate the dull rainy days we seem to be getting at the moment. Last night I got soaked walking home from the station.
