Hooray.  I finally found some time in my schedule to create.  And it really relaxed me after a long day.  Thanks to Inspired By and The Official Magnolia Challenge Inspiration blogs for giving me the starting points for this red umbrella card.




Inspired By inspired me with this fabulous photo:


And TOMIC challenged me with a 3 (patterned papers) - 2 (embellishments) - 1 (stamped image) pattern. 

I used patterned papers from Stampin' Up and 1 other that was unbranded, Tulip cardstock from Close to my Heart, Recollections paper flowers, CTMH Colonial White bitty brads and bitty pearls, and liquid glass.  The stamp is Magnolia's Tilda with umbrella and the sentiment is from Magnolia too.  All beautifully coloured (if I do say so myself) with Copic markers. I also used my CTMH Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge to cut the shapes.

I have to say, I really love how this turned out.  It was so worth staying up past my bedtime to finish.
