This month at Crafty Calendar we are lucky to have two fabulous sponsors this month Sheepski Designs and Crafty Ribbons. I have used the beautiful Shopping in Yorkshire image- so lovely to colour. This card started life as a slimline design. I printed the image onto white card, masked it off and added the stencilled background panel with the raindrops- all good so far, coloured the image with Copics and paper pieced the umbrella- still good- inked up my stamp for the sentiment...and dropped it!!! Of course it landed on the card 🤦♀️- fortunately near the top of the panel so I cut it smaller and mounted it onto a wider dark blue mat. Found 2 buttons in my stash to match the brolly.
As always there's plenty of inspiration over at the Challenge Blog, some fabulous makes from the rest of the DT, so please hop over to take a look. We'd love to have you play along this month, it's easy to join in, the theme is Anything Goes- so don't be shy!!
Thanks for stopping by, have a good week.

Fabulous card Chris, that image is gorgeous. The design looks great, maybe a happy accident with the dropped stamp. Cloudy and grey here too, have a good weekend.

The blue panel may have covered up an inky mark but is a beautiful match to the images coat,the rainy drops background stencil is beautiful
Beautiful card Chris I do love that image the colours are fabulous I also love how you have paper pieced the umbrella with the buttons to match you would never know about the extra panel I have had to do the same thing a few times recently, lol, happens to us all.

Hi Chris - fabulous card! I'm sure it would have looked just as good as a slimline but it it's stunning as it is. Love her brolly and the weather doesn't look much different to your background here right now!
