The base is an A2 card size with Papaya cardstock.  The elephant is stamped & cut from Pebble cardstock, the alligator is stamped & cut from Sage cardstock and the giraffe is stamped & cut from Papaya Petite Polka Dot cardstock.  The umbrella is made by die-cutting a circle from Bermuda cardstock, then using the Scallop die set to cut across the circle to make the pattern for the bottom of the umbrella.  The umbrella handle is Cocoa cardstock, freehand cut. 

The raindrops & Chevron were stamped with Bermuda Ink.  I used the Spica Clear Glitter Pen on the raindrops.

The road to a friend's house...

I got this idea from an ATG swap that I received at amuse|studio Conference.  I used amuse studio's Enjoy the Ride stamp set along with the Chevrons background.
