Love to Scrap! Challenge Blog Challenge #14 - Run for the Border

Welcome to a new challenge at Love to Scrap! Challenge Blog.  For the next two weeks we are running a border challenge.  You must stamp, punch or fancy cut a border on your project.  Remember you must have a stamp or digi image or sentiment on your project.  

This challenge is being sponsored by The Paper Nest Dolls.  The winner will recieve a $25 gift certificate to their online store.  They have adorable images, so take a look!


For this challenge, I made a card using Rainy Day Friends (this comes in rubber and digital).  It's always good to have a friend by your side when life sends thunderstorms your way.  I just wish I had one near by, because it's just a pouring some days.  This is image is perfect for best friends.


I colored the image using my handy dandy water colorpencils and finishing it up with regular colorpencils  I couldn't really decide what border to use for this project, but went with a Martha Stewart punch.  The sentiment came from a MFT stamp set called Friendship is Shelter (this might be discontinued), which I thought looked perfect on a cloud.  


To make the puddle look like water, some glossy accent was used.  Even on the raindrops I used some glossy accent.  To make it girlie I added some rhinestones to the umbrella.


Here is the inside of the card.

Hope to see you entry the Love to Scrap! Challenge Blog Challenge!
