April Showers and Birthday Bird Card

Hello Stamper,
April Showers is the first card I want to share with you.
Here in WI. We have been under a rain cloud for over a week. We should have a lot of beautiful May flowers!
I stamped Girl In Rain on X-Press card stock and colored the image with Copic markers.
I cut out the frame with Spellbinders. I wanted to make it shiny or wet-looking so I cut a piece of acetate in the exact shape of the frame and put it over top. 
I remember the rain boots I had when I was young were really shiny, and the hats were too ( I didn't have a hat ), so I put clear lacquer over the hat and boots. There is a small reflection of the flash on top of the hat.
I used Stickles over the raindrops.
 
  The second card is Birdy Birthday. 
I used our Branch and Bird Standing and colored them with Copic markers.
I cut out the folded frame. I stamped the first saying, Bird Told Me Birthday set of 2
The inside of the folded card, is the second stamp from the set.
Thanks for taking a look!
