every little thing...


Happy Wednesday!

We're half way through the work week and almost to the long weekend!

This is an easy smeasy card...


Bonus points for using the oh-so-fun scraps of My Minds Eye paper that I've been hoarding.  Living in Washington state, I seem to gravitate towards raindrop paper:)  Oh you should have seen it raining on Monday night...WOW...ginormous drops of rain.  Who wouldn't love rainbow raindrops {that panel is on glue dots} and gingham clouds?

I've been really enjoying the challenges over at retro sketches:


I'm also playing along with the CAS-ual Fridays girls:


This is also for The Moxie Fab World's


and last but not least, Gallery Idol 2012.

I would never have come up with red gingham clouds but I love it! And the multi-colored raindrops are the perfect complement.

I like! There is always the rainbow after the rain, but it would be nice to have color while it was raining.
