Hello,
Welcome to Just Us Girls Challenge #572, where our lovely hostess, Angie, is inspiring us to use Rainbow Colours this week. This doesn't mean you need to create a rainbow; rather, create anything you like, focusing on the good ol' ROYGBIV palette.
Once again Leslie Turner joins us as our guest designer this month, with an adorable card. Please head over to the main blog to see the amazing inspiration from her as well as my talented teammates. If you have time to drop by their places and leave a comment, that would be appreciated.
Recently, my friend Lindsey created a wonderful foiled rainbow card, so I took my cue from her. I wasn't in a "get messy" mood, so rather than use a rainbow stencil + Deco Transfer Gel + foil, I went for an easy route: rainbow dies (Concord & 9th) + toner paper + foil (Deco Foil Rainbow Shattered Glass). I simply cut a piece of toner paper large enough to fit the dies, placed the foil on top, ran it through my laminator, cut the arches and...done! One VERY shimmery rainbow, plus a few shimmery hearts from the left-over bits....
That's it from me; looking forward to seeing your Raibow Colours creations in the gallery.
Lovely card. Anesha
ReplyDeleteOh how fun! This looks fantastic and sounds relatively simple. Thanks for sharing how you used the toner paper. That shattered glass paper looks so cool here. I also really like that you used some on the hearts. Fabulous card!
ReplyDeleteThat is one beautiful, shimmery rainbow! Great idea using the foil and toner paper. Love the little clouds with the sentiments and hearts, too.
ReplyDeleteOh that paper makes for a beautiful rainbow
ReplyDeleteLove your shimmery rainbow and how clever the way you created it!!! Love it!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this! The sparkle is so stunning! Great design (wink-wink) - great minds think alike, lol! ;)
ReplyDeleteWay to take a rainbow to a whole other level, Carol. The foil is fantastic and I need to use it more, when I learn how and get more colors. ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm so honoured! Your rainbow is beautiful! (Although the way you describe it, your method sounds like more work than mine.) I love the sentiment clouds, too.
ReplyDeleteWow what a way out beautiful sparkly rainbow you have here Carol. What a great use of foil. It's stunning and even better IRL for sure.
ReplyDeleteWow! A foiled rainbow! What an awesome idea! It makes the rainbow even more magic!
