Good morning, Technique Lovers! It's my turn to host our weekly challenge.
It's raining here, and that means a cloudy sky today!
I love the thunderstorms we get in the Central Plains.
Especially after several hot and windy days.

Take a look at this awesome recent tutorial by our fabulous
Artist in Residence, Dina:

For today's cloudy background- couldn't locate my stamping sponge, so I used a dampened wadded paper towel, applied against my crescent circle stencil, using 2 blue shades. Recycled the circle stencil as the background for my sentiment. Here's Buzzin' By

I LOVE my (almost 30 year old) SU Cloud Stencil - and this was a great challenge to pull it back out! Thanks for looking at my card using Chalks to lay in the bg clouds:

Hi ya'll! I love clouds!! My kids and I sit out on breezy days and watch the clouds roll by. Even though these are night clouds...I would still sit and watch them pass by TFL //www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/2727958?&cat=500&ppuser=142972

Rain would be lovely! Sunny and dry here in California. The cloudy sky was fun to do though. Here it is: TLC590 CAS381 Cloudy Birthday by cdimick - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers

WOW everyone, love all the different techniques for the clouds. A friend of mine taught me how to make them with masking a scallop punch. They come out nice but, you have to spread them out.
