So when I was 'in the crafting zone' during World Craft Day I decided to have a go myself and make some beautiful rainbow cards!
The first is so CAS I am amazed at myself. A few months ago I wouldn't have been able to stop myself from adding more to this, but I'm fully embracing CAS now, and my husband loved this when he saw it - gutted he saw it though, as I had planned to put it away for his birthday, but he came home whilst I was still taking the photos!doh!
I simply stamped my Hero Arts candles straight onto the cardstock, coloured with promarkers and then cracked open my new glossy accents and used on just the flames. Unfortunately you can't see it on these pictures, but it makes a nice little addition.
Next I used the same stamp and coloured in the exact same way, but added a sentiment from the same stamp set and cut from the cardstock to layer over rainbow coloured embroidery thread.
I love the finished look of this, it is so cheerful!!!
beautiful cards! and such restraint you have not to add to the first one, I would have been all over it! It looks gorgeous, and the rainbow twine on the second one is such a great idea!
