Today’s card was made for the new challenge starting at the Alphabet Challenge, where we are on the letter “U.” The theme to go with that is “under the weather” or to make a get well card. There are two weeks to enter your card in the gallery if you’d like to play along!
I started by pulling out an alcohol ink background I had made quite a while ago. The umbrella dies were a new set I had put away before ever using, but finally thought it would be good to try them out for this theme. I decided on all white for the umbrellas, as that seemed to make them show up best, and didn’t take anything away from the background. I added my sentiment and a few rhinestones to complete the card.
Joining in these additional challenges:
(All had a similar theme – the umbrella set is new and the first time I used it!)

Thank you for playing along with us at MMM, your inky background is beautiful and perfect with your new umbrella dies.
What a great get well card, Melanie! I definitely think your white umbrellas made the background really pop. I love how you made that!! Hope you have a wonderful weekend!
Love the clean images against that fabulous background.
Thank you so much for entering our challenge this week at CRAFT Challenge looking forward to see you again next challenge.
