This is for four challenges: Free for All – Weather; Color Challenge - Green Pool Mist; Sketch Challenge, Alphabet Challenge – Letter U. The weather challenge reminded me of Lydia’s Hope You Can Cling To Challenge to represent your least favorite weather (mine was wind). This time, I used my favorite weather – rain! The funny thing is when I started making my card; the second storm of our 2016 Monsoon hit hard and brought us lots of much needed rain. I stopped stamping to watch the downpour! Back to my card, I used the Saving Cream technique with Marina Mist and Pool Party for the background. I had fun coloring this Rainy Days girl & her friends. I used Wink of Stella on the raindrops and rhinestone to highlight the word “rain”. The sketch challenge provided the design and the Color Challenge gave me the colors. I just had to use a little yellow and orange for “realism”, as ducks are not blue or green. Smile. This works for Letter U of the Alphabet Challenge – under the umbrella. Thanks for looking!

Nice coloring on the girl and the background is great for a stormy theme of your card! I haven't used the shaving cream technique for a really long time. It may be time to remedy that! Thanks for the push!

Love the swirly effect your shaving cream colouring gave the background! Such a cute image and the accompanying duck and frog are perfect! We could use a little rain here too. Been a bit of a dry spring!
