I saw an umbrella at Target and I am in love with it - it's clear plastic with silver trim and it looks like a giant bubble! (here is one like it:
ElieBrellas) I haven't bought it yet; I don't have the best luck with umbrellas. I either forget them in the coat closet and *IF* I remember to grab one, I'll forget it and leave it somewhere else. Once, I actually had one pulled inside out by whipping whooping wind just like in the cartoons! So while I haven't made the investment, I haven't stopped thinking about it LOL! :D At least it served as the inspiration for the one I made for this
Amber Ink digi, "
Rainy Day" girl -- a clear bubble umbrella that smartly matches her rain coat and Wellies :) I am entering this card in the
Wee Memories Challenge #59 (WMC59) - sponsored by Amber Ink. The image was colored with copics and then covered with glossy accents; the sentiment (Whimsy Stamps rubber stamp) was stamped in Teal Staz On on Papertrey Ink paper (ocean tides) and the rhinestone raindrops are from Martha Stewart.
Now I'm off to finish the favors for my niece's high school graduation! I hope to be able to post those in the next day or so :) Happy crafting! <3 Lisa
**edited to add - the cloud background paper is American Crafts (Skyline Park - Glitter #35235) and the striped paper is DCWV Cafe Mediterranean stack**
