Rain or Shine......

I know I'm cutting it a bit fine, but I really wanted to join in again with the Digis With Attitude challenge this week, (#14) where the theme is 'Raindrops' how do you do it? So here is my entry:
I had a picture in my mind of what I wanted this card to look like, but it involved embossed white card, and tragically, my Bigshot is BROKEN!!! AARRGGHH!! (Anyway, that's a whole other story I may share with you sometime.) So, a quick change of plan, some freehand cutting based on my nesties and voila!

The image was a freebie and is coloured, of course, with my Promarkers. The BP is Papermania Yellow Tones, the paper roses are from Malaysia (courtesy of ebay) and have icicles stickles added.I also added a little to the underside of the umbrella. Oh yes, I used my MS corner punch too! The raindrops are gold liquid pearls...first I tried cutting raindrops out from the BP but wasn't keen on the effect, but I really like the liquid pearls. I inked the edges, added a few gems and that's it!
Thanks for looking!
