Umbrella Girl

Hello! I meant to post sooner than this but this card took me forever to finish. I started it last week but it lay incomplete until I received my PTI Harvest Gold buttons. Then, I actually finished it earlier this week but didn't have time to take a picture of the card while there was still daylight.

So this is Pure Innocence's Umbrella Girl. Isn't she adorable?? I've had her since April but never inked her up until now. Just had a hard time thinking what to do with her.


I paper pieced her umbrella and boots using the same polka dot DP (cuz accessories gotta match, right?) and used My Favorite Things Jumbo Scallop Die-namics...I love those things. Just did a simple layout and attached a groovy PTI Harvest Gold button as my accent.

Then I used Glossy Accents on her umbrella and shoes to give it a slick waterproof look. See? I also popped the umbrella up on foam tape to make it stand out against her more, like she was holding a real umbrella.

  2. Ooh, glossy umbrella is so yummy looking. But damn, you're making me *want* jumbo scallops. And I nearly talked myself out of it.

    Great job on her hair!
