Lightning Up!

Happy Friday!
I hope your week has gone well! We've had pretty wonderful weather here this week. Nights in the mid forties, days in the mid seventies. Sigh..I wish it would stay that way all summer. But I'm sure it won't. And I'm sure we'll even have some summer thunderstorms...kind of like our little Miss Froggie here. She's thinking of her sweetie. Never mind she's about to be struck by lightning!
My card is pretty simple. I stamped the lightning bolt then used a clear glaze pen to fill it in. I figured out quite a while ago that it will resist sponging w/ Distress inks. So after I sponged on the stormy sky colors, they wiped right off my lightning bolt. I masked the ground & sponged it then added some raindrops. I also flicked some water on the bg & blotted it w/ a paper towel to add to the rain look. Miss Froggie was colored w/ Copics & fussy cut.
Here's the inside & below it are the Copics I used.
Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a great weekend!
