A Whipper Snapper Rainy Day


The last few days have been gloomy around here. Damp, chilly and raining a lot. I made this card last night after a really dreary day. Today the sun shines, however, and things are bit better. I'm one of those people that need lots of light and sunshine or I start getting depressed. During the winter I often go to a tanning bed, not for the winter tan, but for the feel of bright, warm sunlight. Anyway, back to the card... This fabulous stamp is from Whipper Snapper. I used a white gel pen to add the tiny dots. I had fun doing that and couldn't seem to stop! lol! I stamped the backround using a stamp called Rice Paper by Cornish Heritage Farms. I added Crystal Effects to the rain puddle and the little teardrops I found at JoAnn's. Thanks for stopping by! Hope you're having a wonderful day.

Your card is super and those rain drops are just wonderful! About the sun and Winter. You may already know this, but there are actual light bulbs and lamps people can buy to help them with the lack of sunshine. Back to the card.......it is just so cute and the puddle too~
