Here is my Tickle for today! I tried to capture the title of the song on my card. I like to find ways to creatively use my large collection of background stamps. I sure never thought I'd be using my SU Well-Worn Words to create a stormy sky! Hee! But the way I inked it, helped me capture the storm's lightening and thunder. Yeah! I added the clouds and raindrops w/another SU set, and the cute little duck from yet another SU set. (Because a lot of my SU collection is loose and not in sets, I oftentimes don't know the name of the set(s) I'm using. The grass and floral stems are PTI.
Happy crafting and THANKS for looking!

Oh Gabby - your little duck is just adorable!! And the stormy sky is fantastic. We get a few thunderstorms here but nothing like as spectacular as I've seen abroad. I'd enjoy one like your card - so long as I was safe indoors.
I couldn't think of many thunder and lighting songs, apart from one that DH sings but I didn't list it because I couldn't find a link and it wouldn't be well known.

Good capture of stormy weather. I thought for a bit you had done this for the 'weather or not' challenge from a bit back. Your little duck is so cute with the umbrella.
