Get Well Fox - Stampin' Up! Playing in the Rain

  The Alphabet Challenge is on the letter 'U' this time and they gave us the theme of "Under" to work with.  I immediately went to under the weather and then perused my stamps and decided that the fox under the umbrella worked perfectly for the challenge and for a get well card.

  It was a fun opportunity to use an older stamp set with the Sale-a-Bration Sunny Days DSP.  The rainy cloud pattern seemed like a good fit though looking at the finished product it might be a bit busy.  Hopefully it will cheer up whomever ends up getting this one regardless!

  The large panel of the Sunny Days DSP sets the stage for the little scene of the fox walking in the rain.  I embossed the sentiment (Ringed with Nature stamp set) in white along the bottom edge of a piece of Shaded Spruce card stock.

  The fox is stamped in Memento and then colored with Stampin' Blends.  The umbrella is paper pieced with a bit of Bee Mine DSP in a cheery red floral pattern.  The image is then die cut and popped on dimensionals onto a Pool Party circle.

  Using the Playing in the Rain dies I cut out a few clouds and colored over them with clear Wink of Stella for a bit of shimmer.  In the same die set are a few dies for sprigs of grass or flower stems (whatever you need them to be) so I cut a few of those in Shaded Spruce and popped them on mini dimensionals.  

  I added a few adhesive-backed flowers (can find these in the mini catalog in the Bee Mine Suite).  They tie in the umbrella and the yellow of the raincoat nicely.

  All of the products used to make this card can be purchased in my ONLINE STORE.

  Thanks for looking!  Did you stamp today?
