Hello friends!
Do you ever had an idea bouncing around in your head and can't wait to get it out on paper? I used the mini ink spots to ink up the Concrete Texture background stamp. It works out perfectly to fit five colors evenly across the image. I love the subtle rainbow that it creates. It is just full of texture!! I finished the card off with a love die. I used both the negative and the positive to add a sentiment. Do you like the Hello or the Love version better?

Hello all,
I was hoping to make a video showing you how easy it was to make these cards. When I read the sentiment foiling popped into my head. I just got a bunch of new foils that I was dying to try out.
I used my computer to create a star pattern and printed it on both white and black cardstock. I was so curious to see how this foil would look on the black.
I'm so so happy to report that it worked! On my first card I used rainbow foil. It over foiled just a little but I think it looked like stardust. It fit in perfectly. My next two cards used gold holographic foil. It is amazing how different it looks on white vs black. The holographic quality is just so addictive. Sometimes the stars look gold others they have a rainbow sparkle. It is so addictive... I must foil all the things..

Hello!
Years ago, I bought a bunch of sequins to use as embellishments on my cards. I haven't used them in a long while and they are just collecting dust. I wanted to see if I could find a creative way to incorporate them into the card and make them a focal point. I used a rainbow die as a template/pattern because I was worried if I "winged it" I would make a mess of it. I love how it turned out.

Welcome,
I'm having so much fun with St. Patrick's Day cards this year. I used a old bookmark die I had in my stash to create this upside tag on my card. I think it give the card a playful feel. What do you think? I used gel pens to color the rainbow. It adds the perfect amount of shine/glitter to the card.

Hello,
I'm so excited to share this today. I love revisiting "old" Techniques. It has been about 10 years since I did this... but hey it still works! This is called Joseph's Coat and you can learn how to do it here

Hello,
Well I may have officially lost my mind. I'm making monochromatic rainbows today. Yep.. I took the color out of the most colorful thing that exists and yet... I think it looks really cool. I was worried I had totally lost my marbles, I asked Ryan (5yrs) what he thought. If you know this kid...he loves rainbows. He just sorted his whole dresser in rainbow order because that is just how it should be done. He first said..."that isn't right!" Then followed it with..."I like it, it is pretty." Kids don't lie do they?
Version 1: Tiny red heart and wink of stella on clouds. I think this one is my favorite. I also really like #2 and #3.

Hello,
We have been having so much fun with watercolors lately, I wanted to try my hand a rainbow Thanksgiving card. It is a little untraditional, but I really like it. What do you think?
