Rain or Shine Watercolor Encouragement Umbrella Card with Heidi

Hello there!  It's Heidi here today with another card using the Rain or Shine stamps & coordinating dies.

To go with my rainy theme I created a watercolored panel for my backdrop.  I started by applying water to my cardstock and then dropped in color using my Tumbled Glass re-inker (which had been lightly watered down on an acrylic block on the side beforehand).  

My images were colored with Copic Markers and afterwards I embellished with a gel pen adding dots to the rain boots and giving the puppy dog some freckles.  As a finishing touch I added drips of glossy accents to the umbrella and some drops of glossy accents to the background the reinforce the rainy day theme.

Thanks so much for stopping by. The team will be back again tomorrow with more ideas using this fun set!  :)
