Surprise Sunday post! I didn't want to miss entering a card in a couple of challenges, so here we are. This time around I used a stamp set that's only a teensy bit retired--as in, it was current a week ago ;)
I got Under My Umbrella and the coordinating umbrella punch when they first came out, and I was tickled when Pretty Parasol was released that also coordinates with the punch. Took me a while to get it, and then I didn't get it inked up before SU! retired all the umbrella stuff. Better late than never, right? I also got the Flowers for Every Season DSP stack when it went on deep discount before retiring. As if I didn't already have a lot of 6x6 DSP that I'm trying to work my way through ;)
Check out the Hand Stamped Sentiments color challenge:

This color combo is what inspired me to ink up the Pretty Parasol stamp set for today's card. And I think I'm getting better with Stampin' Blends--check out the blended Flirty Flamingo top on the parasol!
