Splish Splash!!! April Showers at the Outlawz Festive Friday's

TGIF!!  It's been a long week dealing with pet problems!  Nothing major, just annoying!!
So I am ready for the weekend!

Each week at the Festive Friday's Challenge, we give you four themes to choose from. The themes this week are April Showers, Spring Colors, Use Buttons, and Christmas.

Our sponsor for April is We Are 3 Digital Shop. You must visit this shop! There are papers, sentiments, images!!  Bonnie, who owns the shop, gave our team so much to work with for April! And I'm starting out with the April Showers theme.

We Are 3 Digital Shop

One lucky April winner will get a $15 gift card to spend at the We Are 3 Digital Shop. 

Here is my card using various digital elements from We Are 3.

I did some layering of the PNG images and it was so fun and easy!  In Microsoft Word, I layered the WINDOW VIEW-UMBRELLA  over the  DOG IN WINDOW over the WINDOW LAYERS2- STORMY and printed that off. 

I then trimmed it down and glued onto the BROKEN RAIN DIGITAL PAPER and then glued that layer over the FRAMED NEUTRAL GINGHAM DIGITAL PAPER  and glued it all on the 6 x 6 white card base. 

For my sentiment, I used WE ARE 3 SENTIMENT - SPRING-SPLISH SPLASH and cut it out using a Joy Craft die. 

I colored the dog with Copic markers to make her look like my boxer, Kasey. I used Itty Bitty Sparkles from Close to my Heart to put the little sparkles on her red dog collar.

I hope you will join us at Festive Fridays at the Outlawz!!  

And be sure and visit the Outlawz!

Today starts the beginning of the Outlawz April Progressive Challenge.  The challenge will run April 1st through the 30th.

Our image for April has been generously donated by Andrea of Sheepski Designs.

The image we are using this month is Virgo, the sweetest and most innocent looking kitty you will ever find!!

Here is my card!

I colored with Copic markers and used papers from my stash. The Hot Air Balloon is a Jolees sticker. This kitty looks just like my friend's new rescued kitty, Gandalph.  Pure as snow!!!
