Oh dear, pardon me! I couldn't resist the pun. If you've played along with me, you will know that I am often inspired by my 7 year old. Toilet humor is all the rage these days!
As for the weather here, we had a sunny day on Monday. It was 73F and a warm breeze was blowing. Tuesday followed with clouds, rain, cold wind and a depressing 58F. Here in the Northwest Washington, we will be back and forth in our weather until June!
Today's challenge? Please use wind in some form or another! Feel free to use spray inks, wind/weather images, wind in your sentiments or techniques with airbrush systems or straw blowing!
I have attached a couple of samples which I made and one from Sabrina and one from Michelle. Remember to use the keyword, WT474 , when uploading your project so that we can all see your creation. It helps if you link it up back here too. You can view the entire gallery for this challenge HERE .

Gee, Toni, you really had me worried when I started to read about the challenge! I thought you wanted us to do bathroom humor. I couldn�t imagine how I would (tastefully) do that and if I could who in the world would I send it to? Reading on, I was happy to see that�s not where you were going with this. So the very first thing that came to mind was a Windmill
Great, unique challenge - thanks, Toni!

I had fun using my watercolor paints, flicked on my dark background- augmented with flour. Thought these dc snowflakes were just right for this winter/spring card. Here's Snowflakes

Fun challenge Toni. I chose to make pinwheels blowing in the wind. Loved these things as a kid. Here's my card.

Toni, I had fun with this second card . You need your own wind for this card. LOL Sorry if it's not what you had in mind, but I needed a chuckle today. Hope you enjoy this.

This really WAS a challenge! My "wind" in this card is the wind carrying the banner behind Snoopy's airplane, and the stacked clouds to show air movement at high altitudes.
