Under My Umbrella - stepped up

Here are the details for our final project this week using the Under My Umbrella Bundle.

I saw this project on You Tube made by the Kitchen Table Stamper aka Marisa Alvarez.  I loved it so much I am Copying and Selectively Editing (CASEing) it. I made a couple of little changes but loved her design so much I had to share it with my crafty ladies.  

To create the Under My Umbrella card
I followed the tutorial above but I also added a piece of ww card 5mm smaller than the back panel so I could write a message on the card, see below.

I used an assortment of Stampin' Blends to colour the stamped images using colours from the Best Dressed DSP.

I used some of this lovely spotty ribbon behind the panel on my card.

It was a tough decision as to whether to add a dotty knot too - in the end I did!

I added a couple of stamped images to the panel for the back of the card.

Here is the completed card and envelope.

Of course, as the week goes on I made several different versions of this project.

I have really enjoyed using this bundle - so many ideas, so little time as usual!

Thanks to everyone who joined me this week for some crafty fun.  Next week we will be using a stamp set called Beautiful Moments.

I'm back at the weekend with another Tic Tac Toe Challenge and a Kre8tors Blog Hop.

Busy weekend for me as I am up in Leeds for a hair cut and to visit my son!

Have a great weekend.
