Rainy Day Blues

Rainy Day Blues Card

I created this card with a digital stamp from Dilly Beans. His name is Martin and I love him. He looks like he could use a hug and some sunshine. I created this card for a "weather" challenge on Stampotique. That was a new theme for me so of course I had to take the challenge. I'm not really happy with my rain drops. They turned out more like rain splots. I used a straw to blow them on but next time I will get messy and use a paint brush to splatter.

I colored Martin with MS Paint and then used some chalks for a little extra color and depth. The card is embellished with google eyes and two daisy flowers that I took apart and painted the color of my rain drops. The flowers are attached with brads.

Along with Stampotique, I am entering this card in the following challenges:
