Rainbow ....

Evening! 

Today got off to a great start - the sky was blue and the sun was shining!  It made a great change to the rain that we've been experiencing for days and weeks.  I appreciate that it is winter but the sun was a welcome relief it made it easier to work out when the day ended and the evening began.

I've struggled with my card making today - I thought I would use the "Less is More"  challenge theme as a starting point.  It's a colour challenge this week and the key word is RAINBOW.  I had quite a lot of ideas but I do not have enough different coloured inks to be able to use most of the ideas.  So it was back to the drawing board and a rethink - then inspiration hit me!  My family bought me a set of Spectrum Noir markers so that was the starting point for my design and here it is:

The sentiment panel is set on dimensional foam pads

I embossed the coloured 'tiles' with holographic powder to make the colours pop!

For the sentiment I die cut the letters from a piece of card coloured with markers and then embossed with holographic powder.  I'm going to keep the 'waste' piece of card because I think I will be able to use it to create a quick simple birthday card.  As you can see I took care when lining up the letters - actually it was more luck than judgement!

Enjoy!
