Fun sketch today and I almost made the WT challenge except I didn't use black ink. Oh well.
All images, embossing powder and adhesives are from Sparkle N Sprinkle. I inked the umbrella and galoshes w/ a combo of the three pigment inks, stamped then embossed w/ the opaline powder. It's hard to see here, but it has a nice opalescent sheen . I used the URL=http://thewritestuff.justwritedesigns.com/?p=782]out of the box[/URL] tech and hand cut around the umbrella.
The raindrops were stamped w/ the blue ink and also embossed. The layer beneath the sentiment has the lower edge punched then I used the three pigment inks DTP and embossed it, as well. The finished card measures 5.5 x 4.25.
Thanks so much for looking! My blog:The Write Stuff. Sorry! I had to delete a bunch of really old posts from my blog & this is one of them.

An absolutely LOVELY card - the pastel silhouettes are beautiful and I like the way you matched the punched border strip with the embosssing! I love the sentiment, it's beautiful in meaning and to look at - that type of writing font is my favorite for sentiments.

I'm feelin' the joy! This reminds me of literally sharing the joys of puddle-splashing with my G'son James .... I'll always remember the delight in his eyes that day!
