Rainbow Hello

Howdy!  Looks like I am on a roll this week with posts!  It's feast or famine around here huh?  Well, I had to stop back in today because I got to play yesterday and found much inspiration from the latest Runway Inspired Challenge: Christopher Kane Resort 2012.  I mean, seriously, who doesn't love a good rainbow?!!  Here is what I came up with.


Starting with a white card base, I impressed the left side with Lifestyle crafts Whimsy embossing folder (they sorta look like triangles, which mimic her purse).  I then wrapped twine around the card in a rainbow of colors, added a button and stamped a simple little sentiment from Hero Arts.


Here is a look at that fabulous picture:


Thank you so much for stopping by today.  Do pop in tomorrow for a fun little tutorial!

Oh I love how that photo inspired you. You can never go wrong with a white cardbase, some embossing and a "little" twine.

Very cute! I love the little bit of embossing vs. doing the entire card front. Love this! And have great day too :)

Christina said...

Keep 'em coming! Those rainbow stripes are absolutely delicious, but I don't know that could part with that much yummy baker's twine on one card. Love the debossed detail, too!
