F4A278 - Rainy Days and Umbrellas... We've had very little rain all spring and keep getting missed when storms pass by. So when it came time for my card I figured a few sprinkles would be perfect... I took a 1/4 circle punch and made a stencil to go over my CC designs raindrop stencil so I could pick and choose which raindrops to sponge. It worked great. I used Tim Holtz distress ink to sponge in the rain. I drew my sidewalk and sponged in the gray and then stamped with a SU Itty Bitty background stamp.
Simon Says Stamp Wed Challenge
My most favorite technique is fussy cutting. I used a Ranger blending tool to sponge Tim Holtz distress ink over my raindrop stencil.

I think that little guy is really enjoying those raindrops. Good job on the sidewalk. Just an adorable card, Irene.

Your card is so cute. That little bear is adorable with his big smile. Love that you made the raindrop background and drew the sidewalk. The sentiment is perfect. Thank you for playing the challenge today.
