Both the SCS Ways to Use It challenge and the Addicted To CAS challenge are April Showers. A perfect chance to use my new Deep Red stamp of a woman with an umbrella. Because her umbrella has blown inside out and her skirt is blowing, I made it a windy shower.
I stamped a small flourish stamp in Weathered Wood for the wind, and used one of the Itty Bitty Background stamps for the raindrops - I did it with Stormy Sky ink and stamped it off once each time as it was a bit too dark without stamping off. I bordered with black and added glossy accents to the puddles and to the larger "raindrops" - hard to capture in the photo, but adds a neat effect IRL.
The Addicted to CAS challenge is here if you want to take part:

Fabulous take on the challenge. Love the swirls and rain splatters. I love that speckle stamp and don't use it enough. Great image for this challenge. Very nicely done. TFS

I love this image. I can't tell you how many times this has happened to me. Your very elegant card made me smile. So glad you joined us at ATCAS this week
