To start off my card today I stamped the images from the Rain or Shine stamp set and coloured them in some Copic Markers. Of course this little dog had to be wearing a yellow rain coat and holding a rainbow umbrella, am I right? Haha! That's always my favourite way to colour these images for these scenes. I then used the coordinating dies to die cut out my images.
For the background, I used various blue Distess Inks and a piece of acetate and made this watercolour background. I love how you can control it a bit better with acetate and also, I love the different effects you get from using it. It's super easy, I just smooshed down the colour from the ink pad onto the acetate, sprayed it lightly with water and pressed down on top of some watercolour paper. I did a light blue first, then came in darker.
Now the background was complete I dried it with a heat tool and ran it through my Big Shot with a rectangle die, this helps it flatten out plus it gives it a nice stitched edge too. I then stamped the sentiment from the Rain and Shine set also with some black ink onto the background. I then assembled my scene on top and adhered my panel onto a yellow card base. For a finishing touch I added some Wink of Stella over top of some of the image and my card was complete.
Thanks for stopping by today! I hope you enjoyed and got inspired and stop by the rest of the week for more inspiration.
