AESTAMPS A LATTE

Before I put my Umbrella Builder punch away, I decided to make one more creation but this time I focused on the smaller umbrella image in the Pretty Parasol stamp set.  Although I did not emboss this image, it also looks fantastic embossed. I stamped 5 umbrellas in Memento Black ink and colored them with the retiring 2019-2021 In Color Stampin' Blends: Seaside Spray, Rococo Rose, Purple Posy and Pretty Peacock.  The last umbrella was colored with the Calypso Coral Stampin' Blends which matches the retiring Terracotta Tile In Color perfectly. My favorite embossing folder of all time is the Subtle 3D Embossing Folder and it is now also on the Retirement List.  It has been in the Stampin' UP! catalog a very long time, and it will be missed.
