Singing in the Rain!

I'm singing in the rain...just singing in the rain la la la...ohhhh what a glorious feeling... ok I'm a rubbish singer but I just had to sing as we finally got rain! After months of no rain the heavens finally opened today! And not before time as the garden has been reduced to a dry, shrivelled mess, the lawn is white and the trees are looking very sorry indeed! I didn't always appreciate the rain in the UK, probably 'cos there was far too much, but I love it now! Roll on the next rainy day!

Ok now for my card today, it's for The Sugar Bowl challenge, which is a lovely sketch by Gayle...


The image is called Time Flies, it's a Leanne Ellis one for Sugar Nellie, coloured with Promarkers. Paper is K & Co and the flower embellies I made myself. I've flipped the sketch on it's side to accomodate my image better, hope that's allowed. Not easy to see on the photo, I've added gloss to the clock, and also some glitter. Thanks for popping by my blog, I shall catch up on some blog hopping tomorrow hopefully.
