Very timely subject for today's challenge! We've had rain all week long and our nice spring temperatures have fallen to the mid 50's for highs.
So I wanted to use bright, cheerful colors for my card & I had in my head that polka dots are cheerful. I die cut the white front, then die cut the clouds out of it to use as a negative. The positive clouds were die cut out of the blue dotty paper & added behind. The greeting was stamped first using the 3 colors of neon ink then overstamped with the black.
The umbrella was cut once out of pink, once in white & the inserts were also cut out of pink. I attached the inserts on top of the white version then rounded it & attached it to the pink version. The grass was cut from the lime green and I added a few tiny punched flowers. After die cutting the gate out of white, I trimmed the top off to make it even and attached it over the grass. The umbrella & a few raindrops were added on top.
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups & the inside are on my blog: The Write Stuff
