May is here!!!

I am so glad to get April behind me.  Now we can finally warm up.  I live in a small mining town in the mountains of Utah and we are about 2 weeks behind the valleys spring warm weather.  So I can celebrate warm days to come!!!  Here is a card I created for a challenge or two.  I am in the Spring mood so why not a Spring card???
So here is my first card for May and great weather.  I used some cute summery paper that I found in a small little scrap booking store in Salt Lake.  I tell you these are a dying breed.  They are from Gooseberry Patch (Farmhouse Kitchen) and G C D Studio's ( Picnic Table).  I combined some new stamps that I just bought from Papertrey Ink and Marks Finest Paper. I ran the border through my crimper to give it a gathered look.  I stamped the Rooster and colored and cut it out to place on the twill tape.  I added some sweet strawberries.  I love how this card turned out.  So farm and vintage themed. 
Thanks so much for stopping by...
