"Dancing in the rain" - this was my main inspiration for this card.I used a sentiment stamp from Kaisercraft. I stamped onto vellum and used white EP.
I wanted to give this card a textured look and I added a piece of cheesecloth behind the vellum - I quite like how that turned out. I also chose a DP with a textured look, it kind of reminded me of rainy weather, so I decided to use a stencil to make the raindrops with embossing paste. I inked them using Stormy Sky DI for a hint of blue color. A die cut cloud made with a MB die was added
The silhouette stamp is from Kort&Godt, and for this one I used Platinum Ultra Thick EP.
I machine stitched with white thread around the edges.

2) Fab 'n' Funky - #208 Masculine
