Crafting When We Can Challenge #128- Use your Favorite Medium

This week at Crafting When We Can, we are using stamps from Star Stampz and the theme is to use your favorite medium in your creation.  This image is called Spring Rain and she doesn't look too happy to be stuck out in the rain! 

The umbrella design paper in the background is embossed and has glitter accents.  I colored the image with Copics and love the "tude" she has!  Besides the denim fishtail banners at the top, I used some gorgeous crystal teardrops for raindrops.  Placed them along the edge of the umbrellas.  I used a very compact sentiment perfect for a Rain Card by KKS.  For the liner on the inside, I used this great rain "verse"-Rain Rain go away....design paper, then I used a white label diecut, stamped with another sentiment from the KKS series and added an enamel dot for some color!  Crafting When We Can is a great Challenge that runs for 2 weeks and we would LOVE to see your creations!

Star Stampz is Sponsoring Challenge #114 at Crafting When We Can! Use Washi Tape!

This week over at Crafting When We Can, we are launching Challenge #114, sponsored by Star Stampz!  The twist is that we want you to use Washi Tape~  Now I know you are thinking that you aren't seeing that on my card?  However, this denim tape was described by The Paper Studio as washi tape.  I was just glad it went so well with the digital image I used called Rain.

SPRING HAS SPRUNG 2nd Challenge at Sweet Pea's "One Sweet Challenge"

 How can you NOT get a smile on your face when you see Raindragon by Lisa Victoria with Sweet Pea Stamps!!!  Even Puddles won't get him down!  This will celebrate the halfway point in the "One Sweet Challenge" for Sweet Pea as we continue with the theme Spring Has Sprung for April.

This was such a FUN card to do-a 6x6 card blank used from The Paper Cut, with this Perfect rain drop 2 sided paper.  The dragon is SO cute and I loved doing her in Copic shades of pinks with a light blue wash over her.  The other side of the paper has several different cloud patterns on it which I used with foam dots.  What I got a kick out of was going back and using Aleene's Clear Gel Tacky Glue on all the raindrops, even across the border at the bottom (which is the tear away section of the paper).  On the inside, I wanted to do a sunshine page with another paper from the set-aren't the rain boots and umbrellas adorable?  With an up-beat sentiment, it's sure to get someone feeling better quickly!
Be sure to check back for the next month's theme at One Sweet Challenge-Sweet Pea Stamps has so many images that will inspire you to enter your creation!  Remember: Our prizes for our challenges are a $10 coupon if the winner uses a Sweet Pea Stamp rubber stamp or digital image and a $5 coupon to the Sweet Pea Stamp store if the winner did not use a Sweet Pea Stamp.  See you there!
