I'm Here Rain or Shine

Hello!

I have a fun announcement to share, if you haven't been over to Virginia's View Challenge, but she invited me to guest this month, and I couldn't refuse. I created two cards for the challenge, so be sure to stop over there to see them. I thought I would share another card here, using the same theme, embellishments.

I am a pretty clean and simple card maker, and I will be honest and say that when I found out the challenge was embellishments, I got a little nervous! I mean, I use them, but would the minimalistic way I used them be good enough? I didn't really need to fear. Using embellishments is just that, to enhance. Let's take a look at this example.

I started with a piece of watercolor cardstock, and did a wash of Shaded Lilac Distress Ink. I sat it aside to dry, and created a panel with a window to go over the watercolor wash. I colored and cut out some of the cute images from Mama Elephant's Chance of Rain stamp set, and positioned those on the panel.

After I stamped my sentiment, I added my beloved PPP Sparkling Clear sequins in three different sizes, and left it at that. Sometimes less is more, right?

I hope you give the challenge a go this month! I can't wait to see what you make! Thanks for stopping by!
