Flying umbrellas

Thanks to Christine I have caught the 'challenge bug'.
 
While I love the look of "clean and simple", I have never been happy with any of my attempts - probably because I can't leave them alone and keep adding bits, so when I saw the theme for the current Paper Players, I just had to give it a go.
 
Even before I had finished my card I realised it would also fit the bill at Sunny Challenges & Creations where they were looking for a get well card.  I don't have a 'Get Well' stamp but this should suffice.

 
Stamps:  Rain or Shine
Ink:  Marina Mist
Card:  Whisper White
Other:  Ribbon from my stash
 
We sure don't need an umbrella in Melbourne today - we would get blown away.

Mary what a pretty card. I would certainly be cheered to receive it. The colours are beautiful, and you have certainly achieved the 'clean and simple' composition for your creation. Thank you so much for joining us at Sunny Challenges and Creations with your gorgeous creation
