Sparkle N Sprinkle - May Showers

Hello, my friends!

Friday means it's time for a new project share for Sparkle N Sprinkle!
This week I'm sharing a fun card that I created:




 Here's What I Used from Sparkle N Sprinkle:

Stamps:

New May Showers Rubber Stamp Bundle Set, 00-920-923P20

New May Showers Digital Stamp Set, DIGI920J


Embossing Powders:

Glitters:

Coloring Mediums:

Ink:

Adhesives:

Tools/Dies:

Watercolor Paper 6ct, WCPAP

 Other:
Spectrum Noir Markers, Recollections - Cardstock.

Here's how I did it:

I began by stamping the fabulous boot image and sentiment,
 using the Memento ink.
I colored the image with markers.




On the watercolor paper, I stamped the raindrops using the Versamark ink.
I stamped it randomly all over the page.
Then I heat embossed with the clear embossing powder.
You can't see the result on the page below.


I sprinkled the Nuance powder on the page,
and spritzed it with water. 
I used a combination of moving the page, a brush, 
and adding more powders, until I liked the final result.
My rainy background is ready!


Taking the color from the boots, I created a red card base.
I adhered the background to the card base.
I also matted the sentiment with red cardstock.


I fussy cut the colored image out, and adhered it in place with foam tape.
The sentiment was also added with foam tape.


Here's a closer look at my background:


Here's even closer...you can see the shine of the raindrops:


One final look at the finished card:


I'll be back next week with another Sparkle N Sprinkle project!
In the meantime, head over to the store and check it out!

I love this! The background is just perfect, filled with the feeling of a rainy day! I love the pop of the red too. If you can't have yellow, red will do! X
