I'll be Your Umbrella

I am having a great time reading the Moxie Fab World blog every day and an even better time completing their challenges. This week, the challenge was to create an encouragement card using a rainy day theme. I knew immediately that I wanted to create an umbrella. I had it all planned that I would use a coat hanger as the handle. When I finally sat down to create the card, a package of jumbo paper clips almost jumped out at me from behind a stack of other metal embellishments. The light bulb went off and this card immediately took shape. I drew a freehand umbrella shape on a sheet of glossy cardboard and here is the end result. Sometimes, things are just meant to be.

In other news, tomorrow is my day to post on the Stamp BOX blog. Be sure to head over there on Sunday and check it out. I'll be showing off my all time favourite alphabet stamp set.
Have a wonderful Saturday! Thanks for stopping by!
