Weathered Friends

 I do not know what it is about rain that affects my mood. It could be the sound, the smell, the fresh clean look, or the coolness. No matter the reason, the effect is my calm, somber mood of reflection. I also like watching the rain fall past my window. Such is the inspiration for this card.

First, I die cut the window frame. I placed it on my card front, and penciled in the corners of the panes. This way, I could stamp my raindrops within the panes and not outside of the window frame.

Next, I stamped and punched out my umbrella. I colored it in with my markers.

I then adhered the window frame and stamped the boots and sentiment. I colored the boots using my markers.

I attached the umbrella with dimensionals and added a few clear epoxy raindrop shapes.

Lastly, I adhered the card front to the Pool Party panel and then onto the card base. The other Whisper White panel is adhered to the inside of the card.
