Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge #6

Hello!  I'm popping to share my card for the latest Stamping Smiles Design's Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge.  Challenge Six is a fun one with so many happy spring possibilities.  I chose the diagonal from the bottom: patterned papers, clean and simple, and umbrella.
I had so much fun making this!  I can't get enough of ombre lately.  (I know, I'm sometimes slow to catch on.) :) I even did double ombre by stamping the raindrops in an ombre fashion on top of my ink blended background.  It seemed to work so well with the sentiment.  Don't challenges seem to get lighter when someone helps carry the load?  I wanted to brighten the feel of the card even more, so I created a little shaker on top of the polka dot patterned paper.  (I know, you've seen a lot of that lately, too...I promise I tried so many other papers and this one just worked best.)  I just love this sequins mix from Pretty Pink Posh.  Look at those adorable flowers. (Thank you to the wonderful, generous Ka for sending them to me!)
I'm so glad this challenge got me to dig out Scattered Showers and Blue Skies from PTI.  It's been far too long since I've used these sets.  And I had so much fun with them that you'll be seeing more of them in a few days. ;) I look forward to seeing how Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge Six inspires you!  Make sure to visit the Stamping Smiles Design's Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge blog to join the fun and admire the fabulous projects the other design team members created.
