What a fun & timely challenge (as the weather alert radio just issued a thunderstorm warning)! Seems IÂ’ve been making a lot of rainbow/umbrella/rain cards lately! But I love umbrellas ..so I wanted to play the challenge.
After coloring & fussy cutting 2 umbrellas (one to pop up on top), I took a piece of white card stock & cut a bunch of bands using large & small petite oval dies then colored them individually w/ Copics. After putting them back together, I added a white layer w/ a circle cut out on top & added the greeting & some raindrops.
I added the umbrella & some stickles on the raindrops & where the bands of the rainbow come together. For the frame, I took the piece I cut the white layer out of, colored it to match my rainbow then put it back around the white layer.
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups, Copic colors & the inside are on my blog: The Write Stuff

The way you framed the rainbow is super - it makes me feel I am peeking through a gap in the clouds, especially with the way the rainbow carries on over the full base. I love your little dainty umbrella, too, Julie.

The highlights on your umbrella are incredible...love it! And your rainbow with the sparkly bits is so pretty...a wonderful reminder of what comes after the storm.
