Rain or Shine Umbrella Spring Card

You know the saying "April Showers Brings May flowers" well I used that as part of my theme for this Spring card.

Used Stampin' Up stamps, Rain or Shine, for the umbrella & sentiment. The SU set has 3 different umbrella tops and a separate handle stamp which is wonderful for paper piecing.
Stamped the umbrella top twice; once on the pattern paper & 2nd time on white paper. Stamped the handle on the pattern paper. Paper pieced the 2nd stamped umbrella top stamped on white paper by cutting out the top part of the umbrella. Added a wobble (I'm really liking these wobbles for action) & ribbon.



















Wobble action:


























** all supplies are old except for the Stampin' Up stamps **
Glossy accents: added to raindrops & umbrella
paper: white cardstock, DCWV - Patel Prints/Cardstock, the spring matstack
punch: used Music Notes punch to make 2 raindrops & added Glossy accents to them
ribbon: Spool O' Ribbon
Spellbinder: Large Classic Inverted Scalloped Circle - represent the Sun
Stampin' Up: 
   die - Bitty Banners Framelits, ink - Gumball Green, 
   stamps - Rain or Shine - umbrella & sentiment
wobble: added to back of square umbrella is on
