Just Us Girls Challenge #670 - WORD Week - RAINBOW...Oh, Hey, You're My Fav (C & 9th)

Hello,

Welcome to Just Us Girls Challenge #670, where Elizabeth, our hostess, invites us feature a RAINBOW on our cards/projects this week. Given the cold temperatures and snow we've had recently, I am beyond ready for rainbows - real and faux! 

 

Once again, we're delighted to have Guest Designer, Michele Ferguson, creating with us. Her take on rainbow is fabulous, as are those by my talented teamies.

My card features products from last October's Crop & Create: stencil and die from Concord & 9th and flowers from Pink and Main. My card is similar to one designed by Jennifer McGuire, in her session where she shared ideas for mixing products. I love the result, even if my version isn't as stellar as hers. I used - as did Jennifer - some stickles for one of the stencil layers; hard to see in the photo, but it's there. A little something to sparkle up a simple image.


I'm also sharing the Rainbow plushie - from Ellen Hutson - I stitched. Fun, simple and cute!


Looking forward to seeing your rainbow interpretations in the gallery.

Thank you for dropping by!

The large sentiment looks fantastic in rainbow colors, Carol, and you blended them beautifully. Your stuffed rainbow is darling, especially with a winking cloud.
