Priscilla's Papercrafts: A Rainbow Card

Today's challenge was "taste the rainbow". Now I know what a rainbow is, but what about that "taste" part? Have you ever "tasted" a rainbow? I was stumped.

So I decided to just create a card with a rainbow. And here it is:

Using the "swish" from Beautiful You, I stamped it in Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Blueberry Bushel and Gorgeous Grape. Unfortunately, because my stamps are wood mounted, I couldn't use my Stamparatus, but happily I still have a Stamp-a-Ma-Jig, and that worked perfectly to help me get that rainbow curve.

And then there's that greeting...so how did I get the word "brighter" to stamp in a rainbow? That took a little effort. I first stamped in Tuxedo Black, after covering the "brighter" with washi tape. Then I inked up just the "brighter" using my Stampin' Write markers in my rainbow colors, "huffed" on the stamp and (again using my Stamp-a-Ma-Jig) laid down a perfectly placed word. Whew!

I finished with some jewels--did you know that between the Holiday Rhinestones and the Noble Peacock Rhinestones I found all the colors except Daffodil Delight? So I just colored a clear Rhinestone with my Daffodil Delight Stampin' Blends marker, and voila! A rhinestone in every color of the rainbow!

And there's my challenge card for today! Thanks for visiting!
