Have you ever just fell in love with a card and immediately decided you have to have the stamp set to make it? I usually don't buy craft items just to make one card. I like to be able to use the stamp set for different ideas - to spread the wealth if you know what I mean! Even though I purchased this stamp set to make this card, I'm sure my impulse buying will pay off in the future!
Isn't this card just adorable?? I sent this card to one of my dear friends just to let her know I was thinking about her. The stamp set is called Under My Umbrella with matching punch from SU. Of course, when I went to buy it from my demonstrator I found out it had been discontinued and was no longer in the new catalog - that figures! So I headed out to Ebay and was able to get it on their website! On a previous card I made, the same thing happened when I was looking for the stamp set Happiest of Birthdays which I ended up finding on Etsy. Why do they eliminate the good stamps? I also used SU's stamp set and punch called Little Ladybug on the card as well. I used a very light ink shade of gray for my raindrops. Aren't they so cute?? I also used my Wink of Stella on the umbrella and ladybugs.
Here is a picture of the inside. I just love using the little ladybugs! I hope you like this card as much as I do.
Thanks for stopping by,
Nancy

I love this adorable Lady Bug card! And of course it has a special place in my heart.
This is just too cute! Some of the stamp sets I bought and loved the most were the first to retire -- in the catalog one year and out the next. I have so many that I still use and love. That's a cute sentiment with it and one of the best reasons to send a card. I'm sure you'll get plenty of use out of this set!
look so cute...
excellent combines of ladybugs, umbrella and rains... love it.
Love your card, Sooo Cute! Sometimes you can find some great deals on stamps on e-bay. I would say that your probably the only one that would notice that I haven't been posting on my blog. Thanks for thinking of me. Hope you have a great week.
Oh, what a beauty! You have done an amazing job on this card, as usual. It is absolutely beautiful. Thanks for sharing the inspiration. Thank you for visiting my blog and for the lovely comments.
Wishing you all the BEST, dear friend! Have a wonderful week!
