Rainy Days are better with you - Try Stampin' on Tuesday #598

 The Playing in the Rain bundle was perfect for the sketch and theme challenge with Try Stampin on Tuesday #598 here.

The theme with the sketch challenge was "weather"

Card front

Inside of card



The colour scheme is mainly Basic Gray, Balmy Blue and Basic White, to complement the mood of a gray rainy day. This allowed the characters to really stand out and set the scene.
The Designer Paper, "Rain or Shine" does most of the work for this card.  The rain drops are embossed and realistic looking, and I placed a puddle at the bottom of  the white die cut bridge. 
Crossing the bridge is a bull eyed dog wearing a yellow rain coat.  He grabs a second umbrella as the wind has just snatched his other one. It doesn't match his rain coat but hopefully it will keep it dry.
To help the paper, I stamped, coloured and then die cut 3 clouds and added them to the sky.

Inside: Some rain drops were stamped in Balmy blue, and basic gray and some dark clouds were added.  A pig valiantly holds onto an umbrella.

I just love working with this suite.


Supplies Used:
Stamp:  Playing in the Rain
Inks:  Basic Gray
Papers:  Basic Gray, Rain or Shine DSP, Basic White, Garden Green
Accessories:  Playing in the Rain dies, dimensionals, Oval punch, Garden gems
