Today’s card features the new Jumbo Skinny Rainbow and Yes Girl Word Die. Lately, I’ve been inspired by fun and colorful candy, and you may notice that my rainbow today looks a lot like sour gummy straws - one of my favorites! Let’s see how to make this whimsical and edible-looking card!
To begin, I cut a piece of Erin Lee Creative holographic cardstock down to 4” x 5.25”, die cut the Jumbo Skinny Rainbow in the center of it, and adhered it onto a piece of A2-sized white Neenah 110lb. cardstock.
Next, I die cut the Jumbo Skinny Rainbow once more, this time with double-sided adhesive fun foam. I removed the negative pieces (in this case the rainbow arches) and covered each one with very fine glitter, using some of my favorite colors, and brushed off the excess. For this step, I find that it’s important to use a high-quality foam with strong adhesive, that way the arches will maintain their shape and no extra adhesive will be required. Once each rainbow arch was fully covered with glitter, I carefully inlayed each arch, in order, by color and size.
To complete the card, I die cut the Yes Girl word die 3 times in Neenah 110lb white cardstock, stacked them together, and adhered it onto the center of the rainbow.

ReplyDeleteThank you so much!
DeleteWell aren't you clever! I thought that they looked like candy, but thought NO, she wouldn't do that. It must be felt. But then I read that it's glitter. Great job!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! Felt probably would have been easier, but I think the fine glitter definitely looked more like sugar! :)
