The WHIMSY Rainbow!

 Hi friends!

I hope you had a FABULOUS weekend!

Ours was magnificent - celebrating a birthday

AND I had a wee bit of time to get crafty!

That's ALWAYS a bonus, right?!

I'm delighted to be a part of my friend's monthly card group

where there are themes to build our cards.

For this 3rd monthly challenge, the theme is Rainbow Wishes.

I do love me a rainbow!

LUCKY ME! I'd just gotten my amazing DT box from @whimsystamps

and just love these new Marquee Mix and Match dies.

I thought outside the box and made a whimsical rainbow!

I added a butterfly from the Butterflies clear stamps

and matching Butterflies outline die set

and the sentiment from the set ~

which I adore ... it's typewriter font!

Hi friends!

Today I'm sharing a group of rainbow cards

that were inspired by a stack of envelopes!

I was looking at them ...

then looked again ....

and not only saw a rainbow, had a lightbulb moment!

I thought - use up your scraps and make a bunch of rainbow cards :)

And I love love LOVE how they turned out -

simple yet made with 'love in the stitches' <3

In case you'd like to see these made, here is my YouTube video!

To create this cards, I dug into my now smaller scrap pile.

I purged a lot of the papers that were bent or super small

and pulled out the colors to create an almost ROY-G-BIV palette.

I skipped indigo because I was going for #6 - 

6 cards to match the 6 envelope colors.

I was lucky to win a Gift Certificate from Erin Lee Creative

and this was one of the stamps I selected with the very generous gift!

It's called Still I Rise and I used two of the sentiments from the set.

These were easy and fun to put together

and are being donated <3

Wishing you the best and blessed Sunday!
