Somewhere Over the Rainbow

I'm using the title of one of my favorite songs from one of my favorite movies for my blog title today because I just bought a new raindow die set from Sizzix and have cut about a bazillion rainbows. I bought this die set because Sizzix is giving $10 from the purchase price to Feeding America. I love when just purchasing something crafty can do some good in the world.

For my first rainbow card, I used glitter paper and a background I created with the Viviva Colorsheets I was sent to try out. They are so vibrant and saturated, I only used a little of each color for this panel and got amazing results. 

For this second rainbow, I die cut the rainbow from rainbow striped paper from Lawn Fawn and then inlaid the solid colors. I added sequins and mini rainbow clay pieces from Kat Scrappiness.

For the final card today, I tried a shaker card again...I am rubbish at these cards, no matter how many videos I watch or how many I try. I think I am just incapable of pulling together the elements. Either the bits stick to my foam tape or—like this card—I don't put enough foam tape to make the card panel sit flat (see how the top portion is kind of bent down). 

I think the purple one is my favorite, but I'm certain I'll be making more rainbows in the future.

Happy Friday,

Chark
