Rainbow Over My Umbrella

 Sunshine and Showers bring Love's Flowers...........and Rainbows.

I was inspired by this challenge, and a couple of classes I attended virtually.


Only recently acquired this retiring set, thinking I wouldn't use it much......

couldn't have been more wrong!


Working with a stencil, and a hand made one, I messed about a bit with inks and Blend pens,
as you can see below....


I cut out my favourite part of the rainbow, and used other bits to stamp the umbrella and flowers on.
I then stamped rainbow coloured rain drops, coloured in bits of the sentiment and fussy cut it......mainly because I mucked up the first one!...............
I also positioned the umbrella to strategically hide some rain drops and the odd splodge!


So, as so often happens, this evolved with a mixture of inspiration, frustration, and happy accidents.
I may add some sparkle to the rain drops........but fear I'll mess up again!


Enjoy your day
Lesley
