Hello again! I am having a great time with this new set Seaside Seagulls from My Favorite Things. I thought it would be fun to have a pile of fish (that the seagull gathered) on this card. Here’s how it turned out:
Such a fun set to play with! I colored the images with Prismacolor Pencils and I used distress inks for the ground.

I was completely inspired by Kathy Racoosin on this card! She took a bundle of 3 flowers and drew a rainbow on them with a pencil, then she colored in each line with a rainbow color (across all the flowers)! Brilliant!
Here is my attempt at this technique:
Guess who needs green copic markers!?!? Yep, this girl. I still like how it turned out even though I used “Putty” instead of a green color. So much fun.
Thank you, Kathy!
If you haven’t seen the Rainbow Maker Online Card Class, I highly recommend it! Had such a great time and I’m STILL making rainbow cards. 🙂
May your days be filled with sunshine,
I cannot stop making rainbow cards! Today I thought I’d try another technique stamping with water to “Bleach” the background a little.
I’m using the Ellen Hutson Bold Blooms set and the Avery Elle Fill-In-the-Blanks set (a few of my favorites!) Here’s how it turned out:
Doesn’t that look cool how the water just sort of wicks away that color?!? Here I used Distress Inks on watercolor paper. It’s a neat technique and you can try it with a stencil OR a stamp! This card is for a friend that just landed a new job. I think this card is great for that celebration.

May your days be filled with sunshine,I absolutely adored a card made by Jennifer McGuire in Rainbow Maker class today. I didn’t have any glitter embossing paste like she used, so instead I used a sparkly embossing powder.
After I finished the rainbow background, I couldn’t bear to cover up the gorgeousness so I used vellum for my images. You can still see some of that color through the vellum.
This hot air balloon set from Waffle Flower is a favorite of mine! Isn’t the radiating rainbow with sparkly rays so mesmerizing?! Thanks for the inspiration, Jennifer!
May your days be filled with sunshine,Today was a great day for the Rainbow Maker Class! I wanted to make every single card that was taught, and I probably still will. But for now I have an Ink Smooshing card inspired by Laura Bassen.
I heat embossed the sentiment (from Reverse Confetti) with Ranger Liquid Platinum embossing powder. It is difficult to tell in this picture, but in real life it’s like a muted silvery gold color. So pretty!
I added a few sequins to finish it off. Hope you like it!
