Singing In The Rain...

Hiya! I hope everyone has had a lovely week and is looking forward to the weekend! It's been lovely this week, as I only went back to school on Thursday, so the weekend has come round really quickly, yay!

I made this card with a cute image I found in my craft drawers, as I thought it was pretty appropriate because of the wet and windy weather most of Britain seems to have been having over the past couple of days. It's stopped now mostly, but I've got to admit, it's so cosy sitting inside when it's cold and wet outside! :)
I used some lovely new Dovecraft papers my parents bought for me for Christmas, which I love and will be really nice to use in the spring and summer. I also love these big, chunky brads my mum bought for me when she went to the NEC - they're so cute!




Materials:

Image: Kerry-Jo

Sentiment: Studio G

Papers: Dovecraft

Colouring: Polychromatic Pencils

Cardstock: Bazzil

Glitter: Stickles - Star Dust

Distress Ink: Tom Holtz - Worn Lipstick

Faux Stitching Stamp: Paper Mania

Pink Pearls: Martha Stewart

Glossy Accents: Ranger

Ribbon, Flowers, Brads, Gems, White Pearls, Chandelier Branch & Pins: Assorted - From My Stash




I used some Glossy Accents on the puddle on the image, which you can't see that well because the lighting isn't very good by the time I get home from school in the winter, and it's still pretty dark when I leave in the morning! I really love this time of year though - it's so cosy and lovely!


I am entering this card into these challenges:

- Charisma Cardz - Over The Rainbow

- Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes





It feels like I haven't made a card in ages, so I really enjoyed making this!

Anyway, I'd better go now and do some work on my art sketchbook.



Thanks so much for looking and have a great weekend!

Happy new year Georgia! Oh and pass that on to your Mum for me :). I love your card and your gorgeous colouring and design, I agree the brads are very sweet. Wishing you all the best for 2012 and I know it's going to be a hard year for you at school but I know you'll do brilliantly. Love your new profile picture too, you look so glamorous! Lots of love, Chris xxx
