We Are 3 Digital Shop

Here is my DT card for you today using We Are 3 Digital Printables - Window Layers available here.

I chose the "Playing in the Rain" theme

For this window view, i cut the panes out of the window.  I have created the windows so that you do not have to cut the panes out and that anything behind the window shows though a "tinted" window.
I wanted this card to be more defined so i cut out the panes.

I also printed off the window 3 times by cropping just the boot, frog and small cloud so i could layer them to make them 3D.
I also cut out some window shutters (actually they are window panes that i made "look" like shutters.

I am also really excited about this paper.  The raindrops are a PNG Overlay paper that you can layer on top of any paper to make it look like rain!!!
I happened to add the rain PNG paper to the blue paper in We Are 3 April Showers paper.

Tiger Lilies - A Childhood Memory

One of the flowers that provokes a childhood memory is a Tiger Lily.
I wasn't much into "noticing" flowers and nature as a child.
However, my aunt, who is only 9 years old than i am was.
I learned a lot from her.  She would take us on nature walks and
tell us about flowers and mushrooms.
Tiger Lilies grew wild by our family's cottage,
so they will always be a special memory for me.

I did take the Lilies class at Kit and Clowder, 

but i went off track and did my own thing after i watched her color the first petal.

I am using a Power Poppy image called,  Joyful Lilies in Vase.
Sentiment from Power Poppy too.

I have colored this image with Prismacolor Pencils

Dreams do come true!

I don't make as many simple cards anymore, it's hard for me.
I feel like when i make them that they are "undone".
I have seen so many pretty simple cards.
In fact, i have a Pinterest CAS board filled with them.

I am using a Bugaboo image called,  Unicorn Chibi

Of course, because i have to do something "more" to a simple card,
i decided to use a stencil and some medium.
Then i took it one step further and
hand painted each star with Extreme Glitter paint.
