Easter Scene

Good afternoon everyone. I hope your weekend is going good. This is a card I started yesterday, but didn't get to finish until this afternoon. Dear hubby decided it was time to work in the yard and it needed it. And we made a large dent in it. Still a few things left to be done.

This is Scene It Easter by Bugaboo Stamps. I thought it was a cutie. The colors I used are a little different for Easter, but it worked for me.
