I combined two challenges in this card: Julia's 'Yellow Sunshine' using yellow with any other color and Wendy's 'Show us what ya got' using anything new that hasn't been opened yet.
Saffron is really becoming one of my favourite colours, which is surprising since I'm not a big fan of yellow in card making. However, I'm a big fan of sunshine! The 'new' stamp is actually my DD's. She got it for her b-day, and she said I could use it, but I was waiting for her to actually open the package and use it first (that's only fair, since it's her present after all). So, I waited around for many weeks, and she finally opened it this week. Yay! I get to borrow it now! The sweet girl is coloured with Copics and the inside of the umbrella coloured with Prismacolor pencils. I sponged the edge of the image with Barely Banana and So Saffron. To make it a little more 'girly', I used a pink ribbon and bow.

Well, Rebecca, since all I see in your avatar are shoes, it's hard for me to discern that you're old enough to have a stamping daughter! Oh my, your coloring takes my breathe away, it really does. Are you copic certified ? So fabulous and the design just showcases that image like no tomorrow. Right into the faves which is really a silly thing to do since you know very well the only thing I can do is far out cards.
