Ready for the Rain



This cutie pie PI Image from My Favorite Things (sorry it's out of stock right now so I can't link to it) may be ready for the rain but I can tell you, that I've had enough of the rain. I know I shouldn't be complaining about the weather but over the last few weeks, we've had a few dumps of snow (and it wasn't melting because the temps weren't getting high enough), a lot of rain and a good old wind storm.  I actually made this card in early February at our girls stamping weekend at Corinna's in WA state but I never got the chance to post it so I thought now would be the perfect time.  (I've been trying to re-organize my place because a new couch will be coming sometime over the next few days so I haven't done any crafting at all).  Do you recognize this DP combo from my blog recently?  I used these exact same papers on a card for the recent TSG release and I think they go so well with "rainy" type images.  The image has been watercolored with my Tombow markers and I then paper pieced the umbrella with one of the DP's from the Cosmo Cricket Togetherness line.  I then sponged around the edge of the Nestabilitie with Crumb Cake ink.  I absolutely love Jeanie Whitmer's That's Krafty Thursday Challenge and I noticed a new one is up so I'll be entering this card into her challenge (It's on a Kraft Colored Base).

Now I'm off to head out into the sunshine while we have it.... but don't worry I'll have my umbrella ready!!
