Pastel Umbrella


Hello, sweet friends!

Things have been crazy busy for me lately. In between work, going to the gym and spending time with family, I’ve been creating cards non-stop for the DeNami CHA display. Things are progressing, but there is still so much more to be done. I’ve been seeing CHA SuperShow countdowns on blogs- I’m happy that people are so excited about it! However, it also scares me since the days are going by super quickly. Really hoping that I can still create cards and update the blog….these days, any “free time” that I have has been spent in the studio.

Today I have a pretty pastel card to share. You all know that I love umbrellas, right? This past season I successfully convinced Nami to create a few umbrellas. LOVE LOVE LOVE how they turned out. The Large Open Umbrella is perfect for paper piecing and also coloring. To create my own patterned paper, I used the Small Solid Button and Small Solid Umbrella. Two great stamps- a must for any stamp collection.

Thanks to all who left sweet comments on my May Ramblings post. I must admit, I had been quite discouraged that my readership has fallen by a lot. I so appreciate those who have continued to visit and have also left comments. :)

I hope you have a great Thursday! Thanks for stopping by my blog- hope you were inspired!

Paper: White, Brown Kraft, Sweet Blush, Dark Chocolate, Bitty Dots Basics
Ink: Vintage Sepia, Sweet Blush, Tea Dye Duo

Other: Crystal Lacquer, Strawberry Freeze glitter, Ivory grosgrain ribbon, Sand Boutique Buttons, brown string, EK Success scallop border punch

  1. i’m sure you’ll be ready for CHA… just the stress of getting everything done before then kinda stinks :/

    LOVE your card… that umbrella stamp is soo cute–glad you convinced Nami to put it in the line up :D

  4. So pretty! I love the color combo! :)

    I subscribe to my own blog via Google Reader. Sometimes I click on “show details” and it tells me how many people have subscribed to my blog. Girl, I just checked yours and you have 269 subscribers!!!

    That’s a lot! And I’m sure there are people who don’t comment for whatever reason, but at least 269 people think you’re fabulous – including me! :)

  7. Hey, I think I might try your Button BG idea with something else…(shhhhh can’t tell yet…*grin*)
