Moxie Fab Rainy Day Challenge

I love the Moxie Fab's blog. Cathy does a great job highlighting the trends not only in paper crafting, but in fashion and housewares, etc. You can always find inspiration from her posts. She also has lots of giveaways and sometimes challenges. The current one is to make an encouragement card with wet weather gear (umbrellas, wellies or raincoats) on it.

Here are the cards I made for this challenge. I cut the umbrella top using the Oval Nestabilities die and slit punch. I hand cut the handles. I printed the sentiment on the computer and added some paper piercing. The top card uses patterned papers from Imagine That. The bottom card's base is from that Ikea card set I bought a couple of years ago.
