Such a sweet card susan, so much so that I hopped on over to The Paper Shelter & grabbed that cute little image for myself ... Thanks for the inspiration ...I LOVE watering cans & have several old ones among my flower beds & on my deck with flowers growing in them in the summer. Love your DP's & super cute little bee & hummingbird. Sure signs of spring.
