April Showers bring May Flowers
Trite, isn't it? But if you have a stamp of an umbrella and you don't know anyone having a baby or getting married, it's about the only theme you can do with it. This is an ATC.
I began by stamping the umbrella, then coloring it with glaze gellies which not only give a glossy embossed look, but resist ink. I used the clear glaze gelly pen to draw in the rain. I then burnished the image with distress inks. the flowers were all punched. I thought it needed a little black doodling to bring in the black from the umbrella.

I like it!!!
We have at least 8 inches of snow today. More on the way. But yesterday before the snow started I see my poppies are about 6 inches high. lol Boy did they get a shock this morning with below temperatures.
