little rain clouds

Living in Vancouver, I am used to all the spring rain... lots and lots of rain. Using that as an inspiration, I am experimenting with some new crafty items... little cloud brooches. The little plaid clouds and rain drops are hand drawn onto 1.5 inch pieces of wood... these are some that I have finished so far. Next step is to coat them with a protective seal and then glue on some pin backs. Nothing like a happy plaid cloud to brighten an otherwise grey day.

These are very cute. I'm curious about what you drew the designs on with? We are new to Vancouver, and even though there has been lots of rain we have had a few glorious sunny days wouldn't you say? I love the spring time here :)

Valerie, your little brooches are so cute :)

Hope you are getting a little of the sunshine we have had the passed few days :)

Does a little man have a B.Day coming up really soon???? :)

Have a lovely evening, T. :)
