Double Design Team post for Lasting Memories and FCCB

Today I am doing a a post for two design teams.  The challenges are similar so maybe you would like to join both challenges this week.  

The challenge this week at Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog is April Showers

Make a project with an umbrella, rain, or clouds on it.

Also this week  the layout challenge at Lasting Memories the Challenge is "Hopping Into Spring". 

 I had been wanting to make a Spring layout with Kate's ABC so this was the perfect time.  I used the DCWV Whimsy Stack which I think is perfect with Kate's ABC.  The pictures are of my granddaughters Kenzie and Katie playing in my backyard.  

Also a pic of my eldest daughter with her daughter.
