Rainbow Thank You

Hello friends!  Today I am on the Joy Clair Designs blog sharing this rainbow of floral happiness!  What is it about rainbow colors that always just seem so vibrant and cheerful!?  I mean, how can you not look at this card and smile?

​I have used the beautiful Spring Bouquet Slimline digital stamp set to create this card.  I also pulled an alcohol ink background from my "stash."  There is a lot going on with bold colors in this card, so I mimicked the color of the flower to coordinate with the background color for a more cohesive effect.  

Card details: 

​The base of this A2 sized card is made from 80 lb. Neenah Solar White smooth cardstock.  On a 5 1/4" x 4" piece of Yupo paper, I "blew" Ranger Adirondack alcohol ink in the colors Raspberry, Valencia, Lemonade, Lime and Amethyst.  While this alcohol ink background was drying, I printed out the flowers from the Spring Bouquet Slimline digital stamp set onto the Neenah white cardstock.  I colored the flowers in rainbow colors using Copic markers.  I trimmed the edges of the slimline digital stamp so it would fit an A2 sized card.  I adhered the flowers directly to the center of the card (once the alcohol ink dried) and then added the sentiment strip.  I printed the "thank you" onto Neenah White cardstock and also colored the sentiment in rainbow colors.  I adhered the sentiment to the card using 3M foam adhesive for added dimension.  Lastly, I added a coat of clear Wink of Stella to the flowers for even more sparkle!

I just LOOOOOOve how this card came out!  I hope that it adds a little brightness and color to your day too!
