The other card we made at my February card clubs was this bright rainbow easel card. We have so many wonderful rainbow themed products right now.

Details:

The rainbows and small clouds are die-cut using the Rainbow dies (currently unavailable through March 28th).
The rainbows are cut from the Ombre 12 X 12" Specialty paper in the annual catalog (seen here).
The clouds are punched using the new Cloud punch from either the Simply Ombre DSP, the Sunshine & Rainbows DSP or the Supple Shimmer paper. *The cloud punch matched the Sunshine & Rainbow DSP perfectly!
The stamped images are from the Rainbow of Happiness & the Celebrating You stamp set; both in the 2022 Jan-June catalog
The DSP inside the card is the Sunshine & Rainbow paper from the Sale-a-Bration catalog; it's free with any $50 order.
They could add either raindrops from the Silver & Clear Epoxy Essentials or the Artistry Blooms sequins.
The frame was made by cutting a rectangle from a 4" X 5 1/4" Basic White CS with the Stitched Rectangle dies.

Have you noticed this gorgeous glimmery specialty paper in the annual catalog? It's perfect for rainbows & that touch of glitter.

A beautiful scene with the ‘Here’s to You’ kit; a Paper Pumpkin alternate idea

April 1, 2021
The March Paper Pumpkin kit included stencils and a sponge in the kit so I had to play with creating a scene. It's one of my favorite techniques!

Save

One of the stencils has clouds in it. I used Pool Party ink and lightly sponged on the upper part of my White CS.

Then I sponged Daffodil Delight and Calypso Coral ink about an inch and a half from the bottom edge. Now I stamped the trees image in the kit with Pretty Peacock ink. I did not reink the stamp each time so as I stamped repeatedly I achieved the appearance of a distant forest. Love this!!

The birds and greeting images also came in this kit.
