Sunshine 'N Rainbows Inspiration Hop!


Welcome to my stop on the Sunshine 'N Rainbows Inspiration Hop for Scrap 'N Stamp!  You are probably arriving here from Deepa's blog and I am the final stop this month!  I'm also your final chance to leave a comment for an opportunity to win a $50 Gift Certificate to the SNS online store!  Each comment is another entry so please go back and leave some love for the team if you haven't already :)


I've been wanting to try my hand at making a rainbow since I got my hands on the MFT Oblong STAX dies !

I arranged dies (skipping a size between each) on a Magnetic Sizzix Platform, and cut layers in three colors which I had inked up with Distress Ink blends.  I paired it with a sentiment by Crafter's Companion- it's the sunshine die paired with a variety of sentiments to mix & match with it.  (It may not be available anymore, but it was part of their Sunflower collection if you find it in stock somewhere!).  I had some yellow flowers sitting on my desk, so they seemed like a really fun fit, together with a bunch of bling!

I added some heart shaped "clouds" to the other edge of the rainbow for a soft finish... and mounted everything on a stitched rectangle layer for a white on white card base!

It was a fun and simple card that I really enjoyed making!  I hope to continue with the inspiration and make some more rainbow cards soon...

Thanks for hopping with us!  

Inky hugs,

Tara

Hi Tara,I like the way you turned your oblong STAX into a cool stitched rainbow. I really like the flowers you put at the right in of the rainbow.

I love the texture on your rainbow (I guess from the cardstock you used); it's subtle, but I just love it. The whole card is just darling and screams 'sunshine & rainbows'.
