Here’s an easy card to make if you don’t mind diecutting some rainbows and little clouds! I saw some other card that kind of gave me the idea for this card plus I realized I hadn’t used this stamp set and dies enough. It will retire on June 30th which is surprising to me. It seems like we could use rainbows for a longer period of time. But that’s how it goes!
If you don’t want to miss out on making rainbows, be sure to check out the stamp set and dies before June 30, while supplies last. You might even have the rainbow designer paper you could have earned during the previous Sale-A-Bration. Or if you don’t want the stamp set, Rainbow of Happiness, you can just get the Brilliant Rainbow Dies. Here’s a tip: The Brilliant Rainbow Dies are on sale at 50% off so buy the stamp set and dies separately which is cheaper than buying the Bundle since the dies are discounted so much!!
To make this card, I made a card base of just Tahitian Tide, one of the new 2022-24 In Colors. I could have made a Basic White card base with a layer of the Tahitian Tide but I like the way this turned out. I wanted to use the 2022-2024 In Color 6″ x 6″ Glimmer Paper. These papers are so pretty using the new In Colors because they have ombre shading over the whole paper. You get 4 sheets of each of the 5 colors.
I die cut the rainbows out of the Sweet Sorbet, Parakeet Party, an Orchid Oasis Glimmer Paper. Then I just adhered those three pieces to the front of the card. There are small little cloud dies in the set also, so I used the lightest area of the Tahitian Tide Glimmer Paper to die cut several clouds. I adhered five clouds on the card. For the greeting, I chose this one in the Rainbow of Happiness Stamp Set because these glimmer rainbows would absolutely brighten someone’s day! I stamped it on Basic White and die-cut it with the oval shape in the All That Dies. When I went to adhere it, I realized part of the greeting would overlap the rainbow and therefore be a little uneven. To remedy this, I glued on part of another cloud to the side that wouldn’t be overlapping the rainbow. It barely makes a difference, but I thought it would keep it even this way. It’s the same idea as when you put a Dimensional under only one part of a stamped or paper piece that is overlapping another piece that is popped up with a Stampin’ Dimensional.
On the inside of the card, I added a Basic White layer and diecut from the Tahitian Tide glimmer paper the long die with lots of little rainbow designs. It makes a really pretty edge.
I really like these new In Colors in the Annual Catalog and I really liked using the Glimmer Paper with those colors on this card with the Rainbow dies. Check out the Rainbow of Happiness products on the Last Chance List soon!
