Rainy day

Well, hello again, my friends. I am on time today, well tonight. It is a rainy, blustery day, so inspiration was not hard to find. I used this wonderful image from Digital Two for Tuesday (great images, by the way!) and just kept it simple. Used coloured pencil to colour in girl, chalk for the grey skies and ground. Glamour dust on the rain and the word 'Rain' from a nursery rhyme book framed in a brass clip on. I used a matching eyelet to put the ribbon through. I used my Spellbinders Nestabilities and Cuttlebug to cut out and emboss the tag and then just hand cut a black background. I am still learning to use my cuttlebug and so it is quite the process right now...but practice makes perfect (kind of)!

Keep dry and enjoy the rest of your week.....off to see what you have created!
Enjoy
Ivy
