You Make Rainy Days Brighter Card by Tatiana Trafimovich

Bright Umbrellas

This beautiful card by Tatiana is sure to make any rainy day brighter. 

To create this beautiful card she began by cutting out umbrellas in several fun bright colors using our Umbrella Pals Die Set. This die set goes perfectly with the images in our Umbrella Pals Stamp Set but today she is using just the die set on it's own. 

For her card base, she created a fun stenciled panel using both our Bokeh Stencil Set and our Raindrops Stencil. She started by stenciling the big blue dots using the Bokeh Stencil Set with blue inks. Then she added the rain using our Raindrops Stencil with white texture paste! That layering effect is so cool! 

On her card base she added little black raindrops up the side, stamped using the image from our Umbrella Pals Stamp Set and then layered the stenciled panel over the top. Next, she arranged the umbrellas over the stenciled background, layering them on top of each other and added dimensional tape to raise some of them up. The finishing touch is the sentiment "You make rainy days brighter" from our Newton's Umbrella Stamp Set. She embossed the sentiment in white onto black cardstock and then hand cut around it before adding it to her card. 

We love the way the layering of stencils looks on this card! We hope that you will try layering some of your own stencils to create new and fun background patterns and textures!

Feeling Under the Weather? Card by Samantha Mann

   

Under the Weather?

Need to send smiles to someone who's not feeling well? This card by Samantha is sure to to the trick!

To create this beautiful card she started by creating a gorgeous ink blended sky, filled with clouds! To do this she used our Clouds Stencil with distress inks in shades of pink and yellow. So gorgeous! 

Next, she stamped that sweet kitty with the umbrella from our Newton's Umbrella Stamp Set. She colored the kitty and umbrella to match the cloudy background, using lots of pink hues. She added cute little pink cheeks to the kitty and white gel pen accents. How adorable! She also stamped a bunch of raindrops from the Newton's Umbrella Stamp Set and colored them blue for a fun pop of color. The kitty and raindrops were cut out using the coordinating Newton's Umbrella Die Set. 

To complete her card she layered the kitty and raindrops over the background and also added the sentiment "Feeling under the weather?" onto the sky from the Newton's Umbrella Stamp Set. This set also has the sentiment "I've got you covered" which could be added to the inside of the card. 

This adorable card should help cheer someone who's not feeling well or just to brighten a rainy day!
