At The Library, the book is Mary Poppins by PL Travers.
Mary Poppins was one of my favourite books as a child and I read all the (many) sequels too - Mary Poppins in the Park is one I remember. I also loved the film - still do! - although I haven't seen the recent film yet. (I do remember the Mary of the book seeming a little less sweet than the movie version).
For my first card I made a colourful background using Distress Inks. I stamped the row of houses twice and cut Mary's silhouette using a free SVG file.
I'd like to enter:

For my second card I just chose one element of the story and cover - Mary's umbrella. I used a MFT stamp, coloured with Promarkers and paper-pieced, and an Avery Elle sentiment and banner.
I'd like to enter:
Sisterhood of Crafters spring
Seize the Birthday spring
I hope you'll join in the challenge at The Library.

What a fun and iconic card! Lovely background, layout and theme. Thanks for joining us at Watercooler Wednesday.

Super adorable!
Fun card Marina. Love your colour scheme and great take on the challenges. Thanks for joining in the fun at the Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week. Tristan DT
Both of your cards look fab but the first one is pure Mary Poppins and I really like that x
I am new to challenges. As a former librarian, I don't think I could find a more perfect challenge. I have a few questions.
Where and how do I post my entry?
How many cards can I enter?
When is the "due date" for my finished project?
Thank-you so much

Aww, love this sweet card! Your image is adorable and the patterned paper is lovely. Thank you for playing with us at the Sisterhood of Crafters Challenge and hope you can join us again soon.
How fun your first card is, Marina, perfect for your challenge and your blending is beautiful! Your second card, using the umbrella, is the sweetest card ever! I just love that little girl all decked out to match the pretty pp!! Hugs, Darnell
Happy April! What a great card for your Library challenge! You could guess immediately that it's Mary poppins and I love the second one too... So cute!

I love your Mary Poppins card, brought back lovely memories of seeing the original film as a child. We've seen the new film too, although not quite so magical as seeing Mary Poppins as a child. Your second card is super too, I love the paper piecing. xx
Both fabulous cards, love the first one as it is traditional Mary Poppins and the second is so adorable. I am now itching to watch the movie, it has been many years.
Way to combine the challenges! I love it! Thanks for playing at Inspired By!
Fantastic card for Seize the Birthday spring topping. Delightful floral paper and cute girl with umbrella! Thank you for joining us at Seize the Birthday.
INCREDIBLE!!! I wish I was picking winners this week! So happy you played along at Seize the Birthday and I hope you will be back again soon! Love your work!
