Stamp Connection #36

Hi Everyone,

Connected through our love for card making, blogging and being from Germany we (Tanja from Little Art Cottage and I) decided to create a monthly project within predefined requirements. We are going to show you the result every 2nd Sunday of the month and this is our ninth transatlantic get-together!

This time it was Tanja's turn to pick the requirements:
April showers bring May Flowers

Whenever I hear the word rain I think of Ryn's gorgeous water drops. Time to pull them out, I thought. Combined them with this beautiful iStencil (see below). Used Catherine Pooler inks for the stencil and Inktense for the drops. I also did some masking and light sponging. The happy die cut is from Cutplorations, the rest is Your Next Stamp.

I made this card with a friend of mine in mind, who got a recent presumptive diagnosis of lung cancer, but the biopsy showed only inflammation. Those drops are symbolizing tears of joy!

Lets not forget to check out  Tanja's artwork!

Happy Stamping!
