BICYCLING IN THE RAIN - Cynthia Stevenson, Stampin Up! Demonstrator

Hi and welcome. Today’s card has a rainy day theme with some pedalling exercise as well.

The bicycle theme came from the Waterside Retreat designer series paper(167920) and I used a trio of ink pads and Blending Brushes to add the colour.

To make it look like a rainy day, all it took was a Water Painter to splash the drops onto the background. To ground the images, I added Crumb Cake and Old Olive ink. And, of course, a supportive sentiment from the Banner Sayings Bundle(167051) for the bike ride in the rain.

The idea for this card is from this new challenge from The Paper Players this week.

Here is the list of products used.

I really like your blended background and the way you’ve made it look like a rainy day. Great use of the bikes from the DSP. Thanks for joining in with my CAS Weather theme at The Paper Players.

The water droplets are a great way to give the realistic appearance of rain Cynthis – very clever. Thanks for sharing with us over at The Paper Players this week!
