Weather this Storm

I’m absolutely loving the February My Monthly Hero Kit. It has so many possibilities! Today I’m sharing a rainbow themed card using the main stamp set. I stamped the umbrella and die cut a handful of them, coloring them in rainbow colors. I set them aside while I worked on my main panel.

I used the rain shower stamp repeatedly on the panel with Versamark and following up with White Embossing Powder. I was worried about how it would look overlapping and I love it. I did an ombre’ watercolor wash. I stamped the sentiment with Intense Black. I added the diecut umbrellas, using foam adhesives and overlapping the images. The watercolor panel was then mounted on a Foliage Mixed Layering Panel.

Win a kit before you can buy it! Just leave a comment on this (and every) Countdown to Creativity post! We’ll randomly draw one lucky winner from all of the comments left across all countdown posts, and announce the winner first thing Monday morning, February 6th, before the kit launches at 1pm EST.
