Love that beautiful big circle in the middle!
For my card, I decided to go with some bright colors and a bit of Copic coloring.
I started with a white card base then added a layer of Fog cardstock. The circle was cut from some Slate cardstock then stenciled with some translucent embossing paste to add a bit of interest.
The umbrella was colored with Copics and then fussy cut. I originally used the matching die to cut it out but it slipped a bit in my Big Shot and the white edges weren't even, so out came the snips! The umbrella is popped up on foam tape.
The sentiment is white embossed and the flags were cut using cardstock which matched the Copics as close as possible.
Thanks for visiting. My fellow teamies have some wonderful inspiration to entice you to give this fun sketch a try so be sure to check them out.

I want an umbrella like that! I love the bright, beautiful colors, and they really pop against the grays. Fab card, Karren!
I continue to be amazed at your coloring (and cardmaking) talent! Clean, simple, bright and FUN!
I'm singin' in the rain......just singin' in the rain.......'tis a glorious card that makes me sing in the rain.................
I didn't see the little embossing paste raindrops at first. What a nice touch! And I see that Linda has stolen my line so I won't bore you with movie references! Except maybe to say that I like Donald O'Connor better than Gene Kelly. I mean the guy ran up the walls!
