You Brighten my Days

This is the most adorable Hanna Stamps set yet, in my opinion! This set is called Rainy Days, and it will be available this Thursday at MIDNIGHT! She comes with all different accessory stamps, including a duck, worm, boots, an umbrella, rain and splashes, this puddle, and a sentiment "rain, rain, come this way!". Don't you just love her braided hair?!?

So, this card was a paper piecing nightmare! LOL I did both the umbrella and raincoat and boots, and it was NOT easy!!! If you click the pic for a close-up, you can see all of the tiny pieces, especially in the umbrella. I think the next time, I'll just give her an outfit! :) I DO love the finished product, though.

I used my MM {note}worthy paper for this, and some Blush Blossom CS. The pearls are from Joy Crafts, found here, and the ribbon is from May Arts, found here. I colored her skin and hair with my Copics, and the sentiment is from A Muse. And lastly, for the puddle, I outlined the lines with my Ciao BG10, and covered it with Crystal Effects to make it look wet.

I hope that you like it as much as I do. I plan to have another sneak peek soon, but tomorrow, you can probably expect a CHF card, using another of Asela's Hopkins' stamps! See you then!

Kirsten
