Happy Thursday!!! Here’s a nice, bright color challenge for you on Create with Connie and Mary today!

I used my Under My Umbrella stamp set for this cute card. Isn’t it nice and springy looking?

Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Bermuda Bay cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Whisper White is added on top.
- A 1 x 4 strip of Brights 6×6 DSP in Daffodil Delight was added to the front towards the top.
- The closed umbrella image was stamped with Memento Black Ink on Bermuda Bay, Daffodil Delight and Coastal Cabana, then punched with the Umbrella Builder Punch.
- The handles were stamped with Memento Black Ink on Gray Granite cardstock, and punched with the Umbrella Builder Punch.
- All umbrellas were added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Three flower bouquets were stamped with Memento Black Ink on Whisper White and colored with Light & Dark Daffodil Delight, Dark Bermuda Bay and Light Pool Party Stampin’ Blends. They were hand-cut and added to the umbrellas.
- Champagne Rhinestones were added to the center of the flowers.
- Some White Baker’s Twine was wrapped around the center handle and tied in a bow.
- The greeting from Under My Umbrella was stamped with Memento Black Ink.
