Singing in the Rain

This stamp was a Christmas gift from a lovely blogpal (she knows who she is - so thank you honey). Despite the rainy weather it showcases, the little girl looks like she's having a whale of a time jumping the puddles with a huge smile on her face, so I've used some lovely bright colours to create a happy card!



Card Recipe:
I've been inspired by:
  • Simon's Wednesday Challenge - All Things Bright and Beautiful
  • Crafty Calendar - Anything Goes
  • Inky Chicks - From the UK with Love (it's a bit of a joke that us Brits like to talk about the weather, plus it does rain a fair amount here, and also I've used red (well, ok, it's a dark pink), white and blue, the colours of the Union Jack)
  • Friday Sketch Challenge - Sketch
Happy crafting
Annette

Oh who could resist that cheeky grin! That is what puddles are made for, splashing in happily - wow hun, loving her in that beautiful pink, your shading is sublime, and those papers are the perfect partner. This just has to be a warm glow card - it is for me, and I didn't make it! Huggles xx
