You Make the Rainy Days Brighter

 Hi crafty peeps,

It's the end of the week already, and I hope you all had a good one. I had lunch with some friends that I used to work with today, and yesterday I went to an afternoon baseball game at Petco. It was perfect BB weather, and I thoroughly enjoyed myself.

Before I headed out to meet my friends today, I made a card for this week's Clean & Simple challenge for The Paper Players. Claire has a fun theme of April Showers for us this week, and I remembered I had this cute duck with umbrella stamp from SSS. I added a few stenciled clouds, also SSS, with a tiny bit of Nuvo Aqua Shimmer Clear Glitter around the edges, and some heart raindrops. The duck image is colored with Copics. I cut the stamped panel out using a stitched rectangle die from GKD, and used foam tape to pop it onto a white card base, which I stenciled with the same clouds. 

The inside just has the sentiment, which is also by SSS.

Happy Friday to all, and thanks for looking in,

Colleen
