Today's Inspiration Challenge at SplitCoast Stampers is featuring Umbrellas ... which reminded me of this vintage Magenta Umbrellas stamp in my collection (which I used when I won this sketch challenge at Card Positioning Systems back in 2009).
I chose this Red Umbrella to inspire my design ... and also incorporated the white, green & yellow from the photo into my color palette.
I stamped the Magenta Umbrellas in Staz-On St. Valentine Ink and clear embossed.
When I was searching for a doily to use for this week's Just Add Ink Sketch, I found an envelope of die cut baby onesies instead (from Top Dog Dies) ... I thought this yellow one was perfect for the layout.
I finished with some vintage Everything Baby Stampin' Up stamps in my collection that had never even been mounted ... they were perfect for a baby shower design stamped in Emerald City Staz-On ink.
Cute and clever take on the sketch Stephanie. Lovely to have you play at Just Add Ink.
