PP684 Count Your Rainbows

Happy Sunday, all!  Anne Marie is our Paper Players hostess this week with a fun theme challenge:


I also love using these Impression Obsession rain boot die cuts, and as I was going through my older stamps, I came across this Inkadinkado Kid Quotes stamp set and it seemed perfect for my little notecard:


My inspiration came from Inspired By for this week:


If you look closely, the center umbrella is actually colored like a watermelon! I couldn't make that work on my boots, but I did use sequins in the same colors to accent my little sentiment!


I added a layer of embossing, created by the Falling Hearts embossing folder.  I didn't put a sentiment on the inside...I'll save this for a "rainy day" occasion and add one then!  And I am also going to enter this at the Simply Clean & Simple challenge where they're looking for weather-related cards!

The theme is such an open-wide one---check out what all the design team players did at the Paper Players blog, then share yours with us too!  Can't wait to see it!  Thanks for popping in and enjoy your day and be blessed!

OH, LeAnne! I adore those fun kid-quotes from Inkadinkado! In fact, years ago I sent them a quote from my granddaughters ... I wonder if they ever 'published' it? lol
Your darling Wellies would be SO cute in watermelon - but this pretty melon mambo works a charm! as do those sequins!
What a darling card!
