The
Dream Schemers have a free choice this week, so I chose to post this card that I created for the
Dreamweaver Stencils' newest release. I loved the idea of paper-piecing the
Umbrella with hounds-tooth patterned paper, and of course, had to put my pom poms on there as well! The background of the umbrella panel features the
Rain stencil paste-embossed with
Translucent Paste. I used the fun paper on the background card as well. This time I covered the
Umbrellas background stencil with clear ink and ran it through my Big Shot with the paper. I then embossed with black embossing powder the transferred ink on the panel to show off the great outlines of the umbrellas. The sentiment is one of many
Rain Words to choose from, and was paste-embossed in
white. Now is your opportunity to play along. Soak up some more inspiration from the
Dream It Up! blog as well as all of our fabby
Dream Team members as listed at right. Link up your creation to inspire us!

Pam ...I am one of those "show me" kind of people and I have to say that I have seen this card up close and personal and read your description on how you did that background umbrella portion and I am still foggy. It is an AMAZING creation and I hope you will "show me" on our teaching trip up north in a couple of weeks. Your work is FAB!!!
Very cool. I love the embossing technique with the umbrella background. Smart!
very very nice work! love the outline and the stichy look
Pam...I finally read your description carefully and figured out how you did those background umbrellas. It's great to see someone create with a totally different perspective. Amazing idea for me.
What a fun card...my kind of colors! Love the patterns and all the repetition of the umbrellas :)
Great card, love the rain drops and stunning color combo :)
