No Rain, No Flowers

 


A spring card. Or maybe an autumn card?  A Tim Holtz diecut, a Cuttlebug EF, watercolour metallic paints, washi tape, sakura gel pen.

For the man, I watercoloured card in gradients then splattered in grey and red, and diecut when dry.  This is from an old Tim Holtz Bigz die, one of my really early die buys, probably 15 or more years old.  The background is an embossing folder that looks a bit like rain; spritzed with water and painted with the watercolour metallics and let run, when dry cut on a slight angle to represent rain.  The man and senti is popped up on foam tape. Rain is Sakura Gelly Roll pen: Clear Star (difficult to photograph to get the sparkle).
