Welcome back to another challenge at Hand Stamped Sentiments. I love this mood board we got to work with and hope you are inspired also by the images. I really wanted to use the wheelbarrow but sadly didn't have any wheelbarrow stamps so decided to do the umbrellas instead - after all it is April and we are having lots of rain!
I started off by using a Visible Images stencil which I haven't used for such a long time. I used my gel press and some acrylic inks to create the background - mixing the colours and then added the stencil. I took a piece of blank watercolour paper - put it over the gel press lifted it off and hey presto! a great background. The little tag with the umbrella image is an old stamp again from Clearly Besotted. Another one I'd forgotten I had - it's amazing what you can find in your stash! The sentiment is just perfect. I added some dotted ribbon to the top of the tag and a pale blue brad.
I'm adding this into the following challenges
Little Red Wagon - Spring - April showers
Double D - April Showers
The Sisterhood of Crafters - Rainbow colours
Tuesday Taggers - Spring showers

I love the umbrellas. We've had lots of rain this past week so they are definitely very appropriate for spring.And I like how you made your card too. Thanks for sharing with us at TIOT. hugs-Erika
