Dreamweaver Stencils - Showers to Showers Week 4

Ever use the expression, "When it rains, it pours"? This does not have to be a bad thing, does it? For the month of April, the Dream Team are featuring "Showers of Showers" as our theme. As usual, we'd love for you to play along. Just link your creation on the Dream It Up! blog for a chance to win the stencil of your choice...bonus chances for incorporating Dreamweaver and/or Stampendous in your design.

Here's my interpretation of April's theme that's all about rainbows:

I took 7 different paper scraps from my Dreamweaver ROYGBIV stash of Memory Mists scraps and diecut the Long Nesting Ovals (DD004) as my flower petals. I pasted Translucent Paste (DEPT) over the  Rain Stencil (LJ905).  While wet, I sprinkled crystal glitter from my stash over the paste.  
The background was painted with acrylic paint in a random fashion.  I used the Picasso Tool (LL332) to create clouds with a 1/4" stencil brush and a Artist's Paintstik  (R263).
The flower center was a background created with Stampendous Encrusted Jewel Purple Kit (EJK04) and cut into a circle.  It is mounted on a Spellbinders diecut black cardstock panel (A Muse).  May Arts ribbon was added under the flower center.  A Martha Stewart butterfly was punched twice out of my Memory Mists leftover papers.  You are my happy is from Stampendous Life Words (SSC1213).

Hope you enjoyed my card today and would love hearing from you!  Meanwhile, hop on over to the next designers post.
