Hello, my friends!

During our European trip last year, we saw numerous narrow streets adorned with vibrant canopies of colorful umbrellas. They provide a welcoming shade from the scorching summer sun. Today's European-inspired umbrella Canopy card design draws inspiration from these beautiful memories and features the umbrella die from the Lovely Layers: April Showers set from Honey Bee Stamps. Here is a photo of my daughter under one of the beautiful canopies in Italy.


CARD RECIPE

This card was simple to make as most of it was die-cutting and assembly. 

UMBRELLAS
  • Die-cut the umbrella in the desired rainbow cardstock colors. 
  • Add a layer of light shading under the umbrella canopy using dark ink.
  • Piece together the umbrellas, adding foam on the smallest top layer of the umbrella.

CARDBASE
  • Glue a trimmed light blue cardstock lined with foam onto a 5x7 card base.
  • Arrange the umbrellas in rainbow order and glue them onto the card front. I used press and seal to keep the umbrellas in place while I added adhesive to the back.
