Changito Rain
Good morning! I was going through the list of challenges and picked a few to combine with this card. As I was looking for an "uninked" stamp, I came across this cute Changito image. I've had him for quite some time...can't believe he sat there unused! Then I remembered this paper that I bought for a swap; I thought the stripes and raindrops would be perfect.... I added a few brads for "metal" and was on my way....
Changito is colored with pencils and accented with a black gel pen and a touch of glitter. I used my corner rounder to add a bit of interest to the panels...I really need to remember to do this more often. I finished the card with some white brads. Only after I'd finished did I realize that I put the rain drop panel on upside down! Ack! A little "card surgery" and all is well! LOL
