This is not a joke!..... I actually used to know a girl name Rainy : ) Guess what her last name was?.... yep! it was Day! Rainy Day : ) I thought my parents were comedians naming me "Patti-Jo" giggles I think it had something to do with Petticoat Junction! (insert eye roll here!) Ok, so how about we get on to the real joke cuz I know you are waiting for it : )
A counselor was helping his kids put their stuff away on the
first morning in summer camp. He was
surprised to see one of the youngsters had an umbrella. The counselor asked, “Why did you bring an
umbrella to camp?” The kid answered, “did you ever have a mother?” : ) heeheehee
Did you notice the rainy day/umbrella tie-in with the challenge over at Inspired By....? : ) I saw this challenge at Michele's blog and thought her card was adorable. THEN I saw THIS amazing card at Lisa's blog and had to join the puddle jumping party!
The coat and hat were glued flat on the card face but I glued just the very top of the umbrella and at the bottom I used foam dots for some added dimension. : )
That is all for me today. I hope you will join me in the gallery at Inspired By...
Supplies:
Retired Penny Black Stamp Set "Sunshine in Rain"
Have a wonderful day!!

Oh, squeeee! I adore this so much and LOVE this fun technique and how he pops off the page! Lovely paper piecing too. I just love everything about this. Happy Sunday crafty friend!
p.s. Thank you for your kind words and visits in my recent return to blogland.
Adorable, Patti! Oh golly, I really like the unique cut on the card. Way to make that cutie patootie bear stand out. Wonderful, supportive and encouraging sentiment. Great job! Groan for that joke and for that poor girl who had to go through life as Rainy Day.
This is just too adorable! I love those critters. Thank you for playing at Inspired By!
That image is so adorable Patti. Love how you've coloured it and used patterned paper. Fun layout too x
Patti, this is just too adorable. Love it and your coloring.
That's a really neat way that you cut the card. The image is very sweet and well colored. I always enjoy paper piecing but don't do it a lot. We used to hire a babysitter whose name is Dayanne Knight. (That's not a joke either) She and Rainy Day should get together!
I'm glad that Michele and Lisa inspired you to pull out this darling stamp, Patti. With all the rain challenges it may be time for me to invest in something like this. Popping up the umbrella really gives dimension to your card and I love that the bears hangs over the edge just a teeny bit.
OH my stars, Patti! Given my history of hatching Wood Ducks, I don't think anyone could find a better little friend than a baby duck - enter your darling duo here!!! Such a sweet design, and I love Mr. Bear's hat and coat!
I feel so humbled, and appreciate being paired with Lisa on ANY given day, my friend... thanks SO very much, and for playing cards with us at Inspired By... xx

Oh my, how unbearably cute!! Loved seeing it in the Inspired By gallery!
Oh my! This is so cute and I love that you have the image going outside the edge that way. Wonderful coloring too and the sentiment is perfect with it. And, thanks always for the laughs. I love it!
Ahh so cute, love how he hangs over the edge.
Poor Rainy Day, there should be a law against that!!
This is so adorable Patti! Love your colouring and paper piecing. Sweet, sweet card! Petticoat Junction ... that takes me back! :) xx
You are too sweet to give me and my sweet friend Michele a shout out. Thanks ever so much Patti, you are just the bee's knees! Your card is the most adorable thing I've seen in a long time...well, besides Sweet P that is!! What a darling image that's dressed to perfection!
Congratulatoins on the well-deserved win at Inspired By ..., Patti-Jo! This card is a pure delight!! Hugs, Darnell
