Rain or Shine Baby Shower - The Paper Players #143

I must apologize to all my followers.  I have not been posting very much as I have been very discouraged.  Since early last week I have been unable to use yahoo mail to send e-mails to the groups I belong to.  The mail comes back undelivered, with an error code, and a statement that the groups I belong to do not have a yahoo account.  I have been unable to determine what the problem is so have not been able to correct it.  All that is left to do is phone yahoo which I will do on Monday.
So, thank you for continuing to follow my blog posts, and out of curiosity, are my posts going to your e-mail inbox if you are an e-mail follower?

Today's post is a card I made for the Paper Players Challenge but the challenge has ended and I missed the linky.  But since the card is made, I will share it will you anyway.






This A2 card has a base of Pretty in Pink, layered with Whisper White which has been embossed with the Fancy Fan folder.  A strip of Sunshine & Raindrops DSP, layered with Pretty in Pink DSP is attached horizontally across the middle.
Three banners, one in Primrose Petal, the other 2 different patterns of the Sunshine & Raindrops DSP are attached at the middle of this strip extending to the right side.

Two Windows Frame Framelits were die cut in Whisper White using 2 different sizes - the smallest, and the next one up in size.  The edges of these were sponged using a stipple brush. 
On the larges, I stamped a Pretty in Pink umbrella - using the stamp-a-ma-jig to place the handle (in soft suede). This was stamped at an angle. A second umbrella was stamped in a scrap piece of paper, cut out, and attached to the first umbrella using stampin dimensionals. Some Dazzling details was applied to each dot on the umbrella.  Baja Breeze rain drops were stamped under the umbrella.
On the smallest I stamped the sentiment,using a Baja Breeze marker.  Again, the stamp-a-ma-jig was used the place the words.  A row of rhinestones was attached underneath the word "Shower".

Here's a list of the material/supplies used:

Stamp: Rain or Shine
Inks: Pretty in Pink, Soft Suede, Baja Breeze, Baja Breeze marker
Papers: Pretty in Pink, Whisper White, Pretty in Pink DSP, Sunshine & Raindrops DSP, Primrose Petals
Accessories: Window Frames Framelits, Fancy Fan folder, Stipple brush, rhinestones, dazzling details, dimensionals, stamp-a-ma-jig
