Rainbow of Happiness Easel card with video tutorial

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.

They could add greetings inside the easel if they wanted to.  We used Night of Navy ink for all greetings.

• Quick Card template & cute Christmas treats & snowman tags

  December 16, 2020

  ---

  I shared a ton of Holiday projects on this week's FB Live.  You can see the video below but here are the projects:

  Save

  I used the Brightly Gleaming Specialty DSP here along with Very Vanilla, Navy, Brass foil and Peacock CS.  This pretty paper is on sale at 50% off!  See it here.

  This is one of the easiest layouts you can make that still has some layers to it.  I like the card below best since you can stamp directly on the single layer and do not need a second greeting piece to stamp on like the cards on the left & right above.  Measurements below: 

  Save

  
  

  Easy Christmas card

  • Main card – 8 ½” X 5 ½” or 4 ¼” X 11”, DSP – 3” square
  • CS – 4 ¼” X 3 ¼”, Vanilla greeting layer is 7/8" X 3", Foil strip – ½” X 4”

  Next I have a super cute candy box treat made by my friend Marilyn.  She used the Celebration Label dies; they're 50% off now while supplies last!  See them here. 

  Save

  Celebration Labels Treat box

  • Use the largest 2 dies.  Center the CS die-cut at 6”; score at 5 3/8” and 6 5/8”
  • Box is 2 3/8” X 5 1/8” scored at ½” on each edge

  Save

  Next is a fun candy bar pull up treat.  I love making these since they're so quick & easy. 

  Save

  Santa Pull Up Treat

  Red CS 6 1/2" X 7" score at 3/8", 3/4", 3 1/2" and 3 7/8".

  Black glitter belt 1" X 7"

  This candy bar is in a thin card board box so I had to score it.  Usually I just wrap the card stock around the candy bar and glue the edge overlapping each other.  That one is a lot quicker. 

  Save

  Lastly is a sweet snowman tag. 

  Save

  
  

  It's a piece of Snowflake Splendor DSP and White CS both measuring 4 1/2" X 2" and tied together at the top.  I used the Delightful Tag Topper & 2" circle punches here. The stitched nose is made with the Triangle dies.  I drew Black 'stones' with a marker for his smile. 

  Below you can get the tips on putting these projects together.  Don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel here.
