More rainbow cards

Hi everyone,

I have had so much fun making these rainbow cards. Given everything going on in the world at this time it is nice to know there is a rainbow somewhere. Maybe Hawaii!!

For my 1st card I started by creating my cloud background using a stencil and ink blending Unicorn white ink onto a light blue piece of cardstock. 

The clouds from MFT were die cut from a piece of white cardstock which I had embossed using a Cuttlebug embossing folder. The rainbow was die cut using a die from Paper Smooches and the sentiment was white embossed onto a piece of black cardstock using a stamp from Mama Elephant.

I added some glitter to the edges of each of the clouds and that's it for this card.

For my second card I used a rounded rectangle Infinity die set from Hero Arts cutting out each of the colours of cardstock and stacking them together and adding a white embossed sentiment to the middle piece.

To add a little interest to my background I used a heart stencil from Simon Says Stamp and Gina K's Iridescent glitter. Hard to tell in the photo but there is a lot of glittery sparkle going on here.

For my last card I die cut the background panel using a Wonky Stitched rectangle die and then used a couple of Lawn Fawn cloud stencils to create the clouds. The rainbow was die cut using circle dies and coloured cardstock. The sun is Hero Arts and yellow cardstock with little hearts that were created with a stencil. I added the sentiment and some Iridescent Bubbles for a little accent.

Well there you have it for the remainder of my rainbow cards. Thanks so much for stopping by.

Rainbow cards

Hi everyone,

Today I have a couple of cards to share with a rainbow theme. As rainbows are everywhere these days I thought I would make a few different cards.

 

I started by creating my rainbow using a circle die from Spellbinders and different colours of cardstock. The white base of my card was die cut using a stitched rectangle die.

The sentiment was stamped with black ink and I added a little glitter heart where there was an open heart image.

The second card was created by using a stencil and dry embossing to create my background piece. The rainbow pieces were created using an Infinity die set from Hero Arts.

I layered the coloured pieces together and then used a white piece for the sentiment in the middle. I die cut several pieces of the white centrepiece and adhered them together so that they would create a nice raised image. The sentiment was stamped with black ink and some clear sequins were added for a little accents.

Well that's it for both of my cards and thanks so much for stopping by. I will be adding a couple more rainbow cards soon so stay tuned.

Holiday Hello

Hi everyone,

Just stopping in to share a card I created for the Holidays. This is the first time I have used this plaid background stamp and I just love the results.

I started by creating my background with this great Plaid background stamp from Concord & 9th and red ink. The gold lines were done with gold metallic ink.

I distressed the edges of the background piece using a Tim Holtz distressing tool.

The poinsettia and leaf were die cut with Spellbinders dies and the edges were tipped with a gold metallic pen.

Stamped the Simon Says Stamp sentiment onto black cardstock and heat embossed with white embossing powder.

I foam mounted the background panel onto a piece of black cardstock and added all the elements of my card. A little gold gem was added to the centre of the poinsettia.

Well that's it for my card and thanks so much for stopping by.

Supplies:

Concord & 9th Plaid Background stamp

Spellbinders Layered Poinsettia die

Hi everyone,

I have a fun card that I created for Day 21 of the Kathy Racoosin's 30 day colouring challenge here using mostly Lawn Fawn products.

I started by creating my background with a stencil and some distress inks.
For the sun I applied some distress ink on to a small piece of cardstock and added some clear embossing powder and then die cut the sun itself using a small circle die from Spellbinders.

The sky was created with a die and some Lawn Fawn watercolour cardstock. I die cut the grass twice with some patterned paper and then coloured the little alligator with 2 different shades of green Copic markers. I used a stitched die to add stitching to the all sides of the card.

Stamped the sentiment and added a little die cut heart.

Well that's it for this card and thanks for stopping by.

Hi everyone,

Well it's a dreary day here and pouring absolute buckets of rain. Good to wash all the rest of the snow away :) Did my Zumba class this morning and now it's time to play in my craft room.

I have a card to share for the current SSSflickrchallenge#68 to create 'Something New' here

Mine is a shaker card I created to welcome a new baby.

Blended a circle background first and then used various circle dies and some SSS stamps and dies to make my shaker.
Embossed the base of the card using a stitched rectangle filled the shaker with sequins and added some twine to finish the card.

Thanks for stopping by,

Baby bear

Hi everyone,

One of my recent purchases was a stamp and die set from My Favorite Things called Birthday Bears.
I thought this set was perfect to create a baby card which I really don't do very often. I did make it into a shaker card which I do loving doing. I find they are such fun!

I created the background first using a circle die and some patterned paper. I then stamped the bear and balloons and coloured them using Copics.

Before assembling the card I decided to stamp the word 'Bebe' over the background piece of the shaker. Before I knew it I had glued all the pieces in place for my shaker but forgot to include the accents on the word bebe. Oh well! I'm sure they'll appreciate it anyways :)

I added some glossy accents to the green balloon and clear Wink of Stella to the 2 other balloons. 

Thanks for stopping by,
