I loved the retro look of the inspiration umbrella and the great colors. I also liked the asymetrical quality of the pattern, not-quite-perfect circles. So after I punched out my circles, I went in with scissors and trimmed them by hand to get that "uneven" look.
It looks like clear embossing on the wjite CS, but I actually used my Seeing Spots Classy Brass Template to dry emboss the circles, then added a touch of Crystal Effects.
I added the touch of black in the ribbon and sentiment for some pop. This is my new favorite size card to make: 4 1/4 inches square. So fun and easy!
