As I sit here typing up this post I'm watching the snow come down......
Yup y'all heard it right - it's April 25th and it's SNOWING. We had gorgeous spring weather last week, then it started to get cold, and rainy, and now it's snowing.
Ah well! It's just another excuse for me to stay in today and get stuff done around the house :o) Besides it could be a lot worse - we could have a storm like we did 2 weeks ago or other horrendous weather - this is nothing...
I finally got my card done for the latest Friday Sketch:
Here's what I made:
I pulled out the Rainy Day Emma image from the newest Sugarplums kit.
I stamped her onto CCD White Cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink then colored her in with Copic Markers.
It was hard to pick up the shimmer on camera but I used my Melon Spica pen to add some shimmer to the buttons on her jacket and to the umbrella. I then dotted it onto the pocket.
All the patterned paper is from the Basic Grey Nook&Pantry collection.
I used one of the Nook&Pantry stitched brads to attch the larger Prima flower, then just used my Mono Multi to adhere the little Tiny Tots flowers.
The 'under the weather?' sentiment is from my Spring Sentiments set (it was made to go with the Sugarplums stamps).
I stamped it onto a piece of white cardstock then trimmed it down and rounded the edges with my Stampin' Up! Word Window punch.
And then to finish off the inside of the card I used more patterned paper.
I die cut the ovals using my petite ovals die (same ones were used on the main image) then stamped the 'get well soon' - also from the Spring Sentiments set - onto a strip of patterned paper then adhered it to the oval and trimmed it with scissors.
Anywho that's it for today! I've got several videos already filmed - just need to get editing them and uploading them to my YouTube channel when I have the chance. So stay tuned......
