Cardmaking and Scrapbooking with Jean Manis
“Definitely correct; just the way it should be. It could just as well be ‘right as clouds’ or any number of other things, but ‘rain’ it is, doubtless because of the allure of alliteration” – The Dictionary of Cliches by James Rogers
The Guardian offers this explanation of the phrase’s origin.
This week’s Lawnscaping Challenge is to use dimension on your card. I’ve had several different card ideas swirling around in my head the last several days. Then, out of nowhere, I decided I wanted to try to recreate the party scene in “Go, Dog, Go” – it’s the last double-page illustration in the book in which all of the dogs hold a party in a giant tree. As I child, I could stare at the image for hours.
Supplies:
Lawn Fawn “Critters in the ‘burbs”; Lawn Fawn “Year One”; Lawn Fawn “Hats Off to You”
Echo Park + Stampin’ Up papers
Versamark ink, Hero Arts embossing powder
