You Can Stand Underneath My Umbrella ella ella

By
So - still no snow here -thank goodness! - I know lots of you have had some and I hope you are enjoying it!

I have been enjoying some time with my craft stash and I have created a card featuring some umbrellas. This card will be entered into two challenges:






Here is my card



I watercoloured a wash of gray paint to make the background and then added the umbrella handles. I stamped and coloured the umbrellas on scrap card and cut them out. These were attached using 3D foam pads. The clouds were also fussy cut and adhered using glue. The raindrops were heat embossed with silver embossing powder and lastly the sentiments were added.
Here's a closer view



Thank you for stopping by today and taking a look - see you soon - J xx

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr...
