When you don't feel like coloring...why not paper piece?

Many times, i've heard my friends say they don't like to color...or that they don't want to spend the money for the markers..one solution is to paper piece.

I am making this card for Sami Stamps and i found that this image called Umbrella Splash is perfect for paper piecing with a minimum amount of coloring..just the skin and puddle..however the puddle could be pieced as well.

I am also trying to show that this image isn't just for "spring" but can be used anytime..especially with this sentiment and if you wanted it to be seasonal... you could change out the colors :0)
I am using a sketch from Everybody Art Challenges:

Copics used:
skin-YR000, 00
puddle- BG11, 72

Die is from Memory Box

I have got accepted into a new Design Team and i am super excited.  The images are sweet and whimsical..just lovely!  I am talking about Sami Stamps...have you visited the site?  Sami also gives freebies away each month.  She has a monthly challenge also.  One more thing, you've heard of A Day For Daises, well Sami is Tammy's sister.  Cool, huh?

I am making this card for Sami Stamps and for a Christmas challenge..as i am trying to get my cards made for this year! The name of this cute image is Little Apple Mouse found here.

I have used a sketch from the Christmas Challenges and normally i would share the sketch, but for the last challenge i was asked to remove the sketch, i thought i was helping to promote the challenge and give credit to them?
So if you'd like to see the sketch you'd have to click on their name in my challenge list below.
