Please share my umbrella

That title takes me back to the 1960's with the song 'Bus stop' by the Hollies - loved it!

This card is for Crafting life's pieces sketch 21:

It uses the colours for ColourQ 20:

Incy wincy 30: 'punch it out' - don't know whether this is cheating because the heart shapes were made on my cricut (I don't own many punches because of using the cricut)

I cut the heart shapes on my cricut using Make the cut software. The papers are out of my offcuts box.
