Welcome to the fifth round with the Calendar Girls!
Who are the Calendar Girls? We are a group of bloggers who want to have a place where friendships blossom, creativity abounds, and encouragement prevails! In keeping with that dream, this blog group has been created so we will have a place to interact and enjoy being fellow bloggers.
This month hostess is Ms. April, my friend Terry. The challenge this month was to show me your April Showers. Here are the two requirements Terry set for us:
1—Use an image with a duck, puddle, an umbrella or anything resembling rain or water ~~ that was simple as this Whipper Snapper Designs image is one of my favorites to ink up.
2—Use a fun technique on your cad that is “water related”—examples were a gel, waterfall or wiper card, using watercolors or misting with markers or Crystal Effects~~ Bingo! I used CE on the boots so they are shiny yellow boots.
So, here is my card for the month.
Image—Whipper Snapper Designs Umbrella and Slicker and Friends are Umbrellas Sentiment.
Cardstock—SU Only Orange, Gina K Designs In the Navy, Sweet Corn &White, Reminisce Rainy and Colorful designer paper.
Ink—Memento Black, SU Only Orange
Accessories—Square Blue Brads, Yellow ribbon, Copics and Crystal Effects on boots.
Please check out the blogs of all of the Calendar Girls—there are 10 of us, so it might take you a bit, but I am sure you will enjoy all of the April Shower creations. All of the blogs are listed on my left sidebar.
I hope you enjoy looking at our cards! Thanks for joining us!!!!!!!
