Friday Coloring Challenge - The Outlawz

Good morning!  Happy Friday!  Hope you had a good week and you have fun plans for the upcoming weekend!  We've got a lot going on this weekend so I probably won't be around much.  Hopefully, the weather will clear up and it will be nice for the weekend! Speaking of weather, that is why I am so late posting today!  We've had strong thunderstorms all morning and I didn't want to have the computer on.  They seem to have calmed down now, so hopefully, I'll get this posted and get on with the day. I am here with my DT card for this week's Friday Coloring Challenge at The Outlawz site.  The theme this week is "April/Spring showers".  Very appropriate for my day!  You can use any coloring medium you'd like, but you must have a hand-colored image somewhere on your project to enter.

Here is my card:

 
 
My card base and mats are SU Ruby Red and the fun patterned papers are from my stash.  Sorry, but I can't remember the brand or collection.  The image is Raining Stars by Elaine Cox from Sweet Pea Stamps.  I colored it with my Copics.  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  Some stitched ribbon, a crocheted flower and a button finished my card.
 
Here is a close-up of the colored image:

  5. Glad you are okay after the storms. Some Illinois farm towns got hit with devastating tornadoes- so sad. Two deaths but total losses to many homes. These storms are scary!
