I decided to go for a 'weather' theme; something close to my heart coming from the wettest part of the UK (by some measure for some time period.)
To add some further detail to the background, I added some Pan Pastel in white to the clouds, some shimmer to the wavy section using a Sakura Stardust pen and some glitter to the raindrops using a Quickie glue pen and some Glamour Dust.
The images took a bit of combining. I wanted the umbrella in the foreground, but I needed the handle to be behind the girl's hand. It took me a couple of goes to get it right, but I finally got something close to right. The only issue was that I had to use a dark colour when colouring the umbrella handle as the end of it wasn't properly masked!
I coloured the result with Promarkers and cut around the combined image.
I do hope you can join us this time!

It's lovely and the background really sets the image off. Hazel x
I'm writing this basking in glorious sun so I can't really complain BUT I am fairly sure most of the UK is wet ALL the time or does it just feel like that? Thank you so much for embracing my challenge theme, I know I get carried away and don't really think through how it will be carried out by everyone else so for that I apologise.
Such a perfect creation for this theme Josephine and I love how you have used the girl and umbrella from Creative Stamper. Your masking for the combining of the images is awesome and who cares about a sneaky bit of colouring on the handle, I doubt there are many that can mask perfectly :) :) :)
I just love what you have created here Josephine!
