What a great photo!! I got an idea and you know how that goes. You just gotta make it happen
no matter what. I really needed a rain drop stencil, cover plate or stamp. I had none
of those, believe it or not, so I found a small geotag die that I was able to work with to make
a rain drop die cut piece of paper. The graph paper really helped! I just put it on top of my cardstock.
After I finished this, I really wanted a rainbow effect of sorts showing through the raindrops.
Now, I NEVER, EVER, would have tried this without
my MISTI. It would have been a failed task for sure, but with my MISTI, a piece of cake!!
I used A dotted line from an old Hot Off The Press Stamp Set and kept stamping and changing colors while I shifted my paper about 1/16 of an inch!! Fun, fun, fun!!!!!

I then, clear embossed the entire page instead of trying to just emboss the raindrops.
And here is the final result after adding my clouds, sentiment and blue cardstock.
On the angle you can see the embossing a little better.
That's all for now. Have a great weekend!

Genius on the homemade stencil for your raindrops. I love the way you layered the clouds for your sentiment, and the rainbow coming through the raindrops. Wonderful creation. I am so intrigued by the frequent mention of the MISTI. Sounds like I may need to invest. Thanks so much for playing along at AAA cards! Hope to see you again!
