Hello Classy Friends,
Diane here with you today on the "Classy Cards 'n Such " blog.
This week our challenge is "Raining Cats and Dogs" with an "optional" umbrella!

I really thought this would be a fun challenge being the pet lover I am...
and nothing is cuter then this adorable stamp I have used from "Stampavie"
designed by Penny Johnson called "Floating Down The River"..


I colored my image with Copics and added lots of fun detail....
 "Mercury Glass" Stickles for the water drops, real blush for the kitties cheeks,
and to "bling" it up a bit,  "Baby Rhinestones Red" on the umbrella tips!!


This was one of those times when you get done with an image then you think
"Now where do I go from here?"......
It had me stumped for awhile, then all of a sudden grass and clouds came to mind...
I cut 3 "fluffy" white clouds using Memory Box  die "Puffy Clouds"....

After cutting the clouds I embossed them with Crafts Too "Dots".
Next, I cut my  Impression Obsession "Grass Border" die.....
I used a bit of water downed TH Peeled Paint Distress Marker on the grass
to give it a bit more "dimension"...
I also wanted to mention that there are several more "grass dies" too choose from in the store...
you can find them HERE.



I also used some basic supplies:

I hope I have "inspired" "you" to join in our challenge this week!!!!

A-DOR-a-ble! Be safe, kitty! So cute and happy, Diane! Great job with the Copics. Kind of looks like watercolor, and I love watercolor.
