Umbrella Days, paper piecing, Winter Meadow and Unbounded Beauty designer papers

Here is another Umbrella Days card, On this card instead of coloring in the lady and child I did paper piecing using designer series paper. Don't you just love the way the designer paper looks like a stormy sky especially with the rain drops stamp

For the inside I added two umbrellas using designer series paper

Assembly instructions:

1. Cut card base out of Shy Misty Moonlight , score and fold.

2. Stamp sentiment using Misty Moonlight ink on the grey (stormy looking) designer series paper on the upper right of panel. Use Smokey Slate to add the rain drops (stamping off once) above, below and the side of the sentiment covering the whole panel (do not stamp raindrop on top of the sentiment), glue to card front.       

3. Stamp the lady and child from the Umbrella Days stamp set using Momento Black ink on white cardstock. Using Misty Moonlight Stampin’ Blends color the pants on both the lady and child.  Bie cut both using the Umbrella days dies.

4. Stamp on designer paper the ladies coat and boots, then on coordinating paper her umbrella twice.  Stamp the childs coat and boots and umbrella (twice)  with a coordinating paper. A fussy cut the coats, umbrellas and the boots as I did not want a border around them. Use Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blend and color in the ladies hair right over top of the designer paper if your pattern is light enough like mine is. If a darker pattern you might have to stamp the hair on white and fussy cut out. You could also stamp it on whatever color of cardstock you want the hair to be. Using  the black Stampin’ Write marker color the bottom for the bottom of the boots.  

5. Die cut two rain puddles using the Winter Meadow designer paper. Glue to front panel using Tombo Glue. Glue little girl on puddle under the sentiment. Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to pop lady up on second puddle.

6. Add the remaining two stamped and cut out umbrellas with die cut handles  using Tombo glue. Stamp sentiment if desired and glue to inside of card.

7. For the envelope add the child on the bottom left side or on the back. Color or just leave uncolored.
