If it rains this week, it’s all my fault. I’m actually hoping for a total downpour so I can use my new personalized umbrella! We’ve had piles of rain this summer but now I’m fully prepared {and really wanting it which probably means we won’t get another drop all summer}. But if it does, I’ll dig out my monogrammed rubber boots, pop up my umbrella, and enjoy the raindrops!
This is kind of weird but I have a real thing for umbrellas. I love the ones with fun patterns and colors, I love huge umbrellas that can shelter half the family, and recently I’ve started loving the clear dome umbrellas. The shape is perfect and I love being able to see through the whole umbrella. But, this clear umbrella was a bit plain and seemed like the perfect canvas for a cute vinyl message made with my Cricut Explore Air 2.
I created the text {the font is letter gothic std} then inserted an image of a layered raindrop, deleted one layer, and duplicated the drops, resizing as I desired.
I played around with it a bit in Cricut Design Space so that I knew how I wanted to lay it all out ..
… then cut the text from bright orange vinyl and added blue raindrops. I used transfer paper to apply the vinyl …
… and now I have a super cute umbrella to hide under during the next storm!
If you don’t want this phrase, you could add a monogram or even a cute pattern {colorful polka dots all over would be super cute!}.
I love the clear umbrella trend for weddings and I definitely love it for my own little walk in the rain!
