Singing In The Rain.......

Since it is almost April and after all April Showers bring May flowers this would be a fitting image and post!!!   Today The Stamping Boutique is sponsoring the challenge over at The Creative Belli Blog and the theme is color spray. Well that was a tough one for me since I am a novice at this.  I got my new Shimmer paints out and my old blow pens and gave it a whirl.  This is what I came up with.


I used the shimmer on the pages of an old hymnal for the sheet music and then I used a tutorial from Mercy which can be found here to make my puffy flower. I used the same shimmer paint in two different shades of blue on the flower and used the same pages from the old hymnal.  I was so pleased with how it turned out.  I wanted my background paper to look like rain so I got my old blow pens out and used that on it.  I was on a roll.  I colored with copics and added a bit of glossy accents to the water, stickles here and there and a few dew drops and a computer generated sentiment with the font Evertime I Miss You and she was ready for her audition with Gene Kelly.


Isn't she just the cutest???


So darn proud of my flower!!!
