Challenge #8 - Use an Umbrella

Welcome to The Card Concept. 

This week we have a theme for you to try! You must use the theme and create your card in one of the styles of the designers. 

Lee Ann is off this challenge, so Lesley is subbing in for her. 

The styles are explained HERE.

Clean & Simple

Tracey McNeely 

Paper Piecing can really make an image pop in CAS design.

Deanna Dean

You can still add a stamped pattern and keep it CAS.

Clean & Graphic

Ardyth Percy-Robb

A monochromatic colour scheme always feels clean!

Geri Greening

Faux stitching 'plays nicely' with a clean & graphic card.

Clean & Layering

Kay Miller

I had to go with a summer beach umbrella. I'm needing some sunshine and warmth here ;)

Kerin Sylvester

I was inspired to incorporate umbrella DSP, as well as make an umbrella of my own.

Shabby Chic

Narelle Farrugia 

I didn't quite capture the many colours from the umbrellas in the inspiration pic, but I did manage to add an umbrella!

Debbie Marcinkiewicz

I was inspired to create a sweet little something full of layers, vintage lace, satin blooms and glittered raindrops for this week's challenge!

Freestyle Collage

Karen Davis 

My rain Umbrella needed a few puffy clouds and a few spots of rain......sunshine on its way.

Cindy Lovell 

I loved the idea,of letting little hearts rain, after I choose the sentiment for this card.


Classy & Elegant

Cathy Weber

How about an umbrella mobile for the elegant baby?

Lesley Croghan

I wanted to create an umbrella card that was all about being happy!
