My cousin and his wife are expecting a baby girl (due in August) so I immediately thought of a pink umbrella for a baby girl card. The MMH kit has a window die and I had the idea to use the windowpanes to carry a quartet of items. Here's a closer look (colors are true here) with supply list.

Next, a card for the current Hero Arts Stay Crafty with Hero challenge to make a self care card. The little rainbow colored umbrella among the storm clouds really gave me a lift. For a fave technique, I did ink blending on a piece of white card. We can all take a moment to find ways to dance in the rain (or I should say storm!) of this dang pandemic!!

What a sweet baby card, Linda ... such pretty patterns on the paper pieced images! Your stormy sky with the clouds and raindrops is so atmospheric ... and what a bright pop of colour your rainbow umbrella is against it! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Twofer! Anita :)
two great cards, Linda - love the darling baby card - and the dancing in the rain is always the best sentiment!
Linda your bright rainbow on your rain blasted card makes for a colorful counterpoint. Your baby card is sweet, and that girly umbrella is delightful. Thanks for playing along at Twofer Card Challenge.
Two amazing cards! Love the adorable baby card, quite fitting and fun -- and the gray cloudy card is so fun with that pop o' color -- this is a fantastic idea!
Two super lovely cards Linda. Amazing you got two quite different styles with one little umbrella. Well done!
The first card is so sweet and your cousin and his wife will love it! The second are is absolutely fabulous! Love the one bright little umbrella floating through the storm clouds!
I love your Twofer umbrellas, Linda, and how you built two awesome designs around them! Having a quad design of adorable baby images makes it four times cuter and I love the bright pink background with all the dots and circles! And what a great job you did turning your stormy card into an uplifting design with wonderful encouraging sediments and a rainbow! Thank you so much for playing in Twofer Card Challenge #26! Take care and stay safe! Hugs, Darnell
Great cards! I really love the encouragement card with the umbrella!
These cards could not be more different - terrific take on the challenge theme!
