Great challenge idea, Dawn, to color block with our designer papers!! I accented by color blocking with this cute 1/8" black ribbon with white piping by Stampin' Up.
I watercolored my umbrella and then stamped a french script bg stamp on it. I added a little rose red flourish for the handle of the umbrella.
The Sing in the Rain is only a portion of the entire sentiment on this stamp. The entire sentiment reads:
Sing in the Rain
Dance in the Sun
Dream in Your Garden
I'll stamp the rest of the sentiment on the inside of the card.

So pretty! Love how you used the ribbon to do the color blocking. Now I have the song Singing in the Rain playing over and over in my head. One of my favorite Gene Kelly movies. tfs
