rainy day Mondays...

Feels more like spring than summer with all the thunderstorms we've been having here lately. I can't remember a summer when its been this cool and wet. If it wasn't for the humidity we could probably keep the air off. So when looking for something to share, I thought this cute rainbow from Lizzie Anne Designs August Monthly Mix was perfect for the weather!

I paper pieced the red, yellow and blue of the rainbow and added a bit of details with a white gel pen. The clouds are paper pieced and Stickled.

supplies used:
stamps: Lizzie Anne Designs August Monthly Mix (hey sunshine)
pattern paper: Urban Lily
other: tulle, white gel pen

ahhh Mondays. I have to get DS into the doctors, grocery shopping, laundry, work on resume, *fix computer*, clean, laundry (did I mention the laundry. yeah, theres alot of it, LOL!)....Another fun Monday!
Have a great week!

*anyone using internet explorer and having problems with the latest update? We're having problems with it shutting down windows. Ran virus check, spyware...nothing is coming up. Its getting old, pretty quickly. I need a MAC!
