Okay, it's getting ridiculous around here... not only have we had a long, cold, snowy winter (we even win the snowiest city in the country!), but now it's the wettest spring on record here. We have had over 9 inches of rain in 20 days! I'm so sick of rain! We even have ducks in our yard! Yep, a pair of mallards ended up on our lawn one morning.
To stay with this rainy theme, I thought some "rainy" artwork might be appropriate.
Nikki Sivils, Scrapbooker line "It's Raining, It's Pouring" is the perfect spring paper line! I love the little umbrellas and the colors in this line!!! Here I used it for my current
Scrap That Baby prompt.
I had fun playing with
Faber-Castell DMC Gelatos on this paper umbrella. I wanted it to look like dripping rain and colored and added Prima flowers and bling. April Showers bring May Flowers!
As a final parting project... I made some flowers using Nikki's "Beatrice" line. So, even though I can't be outside enjoying the real flowers, I have some colorful paper ones to look at! I hope the sun shows itself soon (and stays around)!!
