Fab 'n' Funky - Challenge #165 April Showers
( Currently it's raining and I sure could use some galoshes/wellies to get out and about today. I thought I'd carry the theme of showers even farther along by using a Rainy Day sentiment. )
Inkspirational - Challenge #14 Color Inkspiration - pink, banana, and slate
( Was not sure if slate was grey or blue, but it seems the DT projects used blue, at least that's what if looked like on my computer screen. I didn't have a slate blue ink so I used Broken China. )
Technique Time Tuesday - Water Stamping
( OK, so my stamping techniques really stink, hence why I try to learn new things. This one really bombed for me, lol Here is a picture of the rain boot after stamping with my Hero Arts background stamp following the steps...I just need to practice more. But I HAD to try it, I mean water stamping and a Rainy Day card just went hand in hand. )
Since you could not make out the flowers from the stamps; I glued some on where they were suppose to be and added a pink rhinestone to the center of each.
I altered the Prima rose by removing the rose core and added a matching rhinestone to it.

I'm the world's worst stamper. That why I usually try to avoid stamps. They and I simply don't go hand in hand. But you did a fantastic recovery with that boot.
I'm loving your gift card creations! Both of these are brilliant, hugs Carole Z X
So adorable! Your wellie card is so precious. I thank you for linking how this is done. I have not tried that, and am curious now. What a great sentiment for the card and gift card. Your birthday card is adorable for the SSS challenge. Love the stripes and polkas together!Have a great weekend!
that boot is just way too cute-- awesome projects sandee!!
You are really thinking outside the box with these holders. Super cute!
Hello Sandee, I just love your cards! That little boot is just darling!
Just wanted you to know that I haven't dropped off the face of the earth! We got moved, now the task of getting everything in it's place and organized. It will still be a while before I can participate in the challenges, my craft room is not set up yet (it's driving me crazy). LOTS of aches and pains!
Hugs,
