Steps To Create This Card

1. First, I made my own colored cardstock with some Hot Tub ink, pressing the ink pad into the paper.

2. Next, I die cut some of the clouds and pressed them into Daydream and Skylight inks.

3. Then, I stamped and die cut the bear and hedgehog images and colored them in with blender pens and Over Coffee Ink. I added some red Copic markers to the umbrellas.

4. Next, I stamped the clouds and rain lines on one of the clouds and on the background panel, then heat embossed them with some WOW! All that Jazz Embossing Powder.

5. Then, I created a black sentiment strip with white embossing powder.

6. After that, I adhered everything to the front of the panel with Bearly Art Glue and foam tape.

7. Next, I trimmed it all down a 1/4” on all sides and popped it up on a card base with foam tape.

8. To finish it off, I added some Crater Lake Sequins.
