LDRS Creative | Envelope & Postage Collage Stamps
Rainbows make me happy! I used the LDRS Creative Envelope & Postage Collage Stamps with the Postage Collage Masking Stencil to create a rainbow color blocked background with the most adorable postage elements!
This card was so quick and simple to make! I just did a bit of stenciling and offset stamping!

LDRS Creative | Ocean Rainbow Inked Card
Bring a splash of rainbow color to your cards with this ocean-inspired card! Today, I’m using the Coral Reef Stamps and Dies from LDRS Creative to create a bright and cheerful underwater scene that’s perfect for summer. I’ll show you how easy it is to layer rainbow inks to give your coral reef depth and vibrancy, making your card pop with color. Let's get started!
This card was so easy to make, and the bright colors really bring it to life! I started by stamping the center of the Coral Reef Stamp with Dan-D-Lion Hybrid Ink. You can start anywhere, but I like to start with my yellow ink since it's the center of the rainbow and it will easily overlap with colors on both sides of the color wheel. Then I stamped slightly to the left with In Your Face Orange Hybrid Ink and Tickled Pink Hybrid Ink. I made sure that tapped the excess ink off with my cleaning cloth before stamping onto the paper. This keeps the harsh edges away! The rest of my rainbow was done with Key Lime Pie, Marina Madness, and La La Lavender Hybrid Inks. Once my panel was stamped, I trimmed it down so that it would be slightly smaller than an A2 card.

LDRS Creative | Easy Rainbow Shaker Card
Hello! I'm sharing a super colorful shaker card with you today using LDRS Creative dies! This card was so easy to make and completely color customizable!
Once my background was completed, I used the Big Word Dies - Beautiful to cut both the sentiment and shadow from the panel. I adhered the "beautiful" word to my card base and started building my shaker well with my die-cut panel. I added acetate to cover the window and used foam tape to block off the outer edges of my card.
I grabbed a whole rainbow of bright papers from my stash and cut many strips using the 1/2" Zig Zag Slimline Background Strips Die. I covered a piece of thing white cardstock with double sided adhesive and started covering the entire background with my die-cut strips of cardstock.

Sassy & Crafty | Rainbow Cards with Pearlized Water
Hey there! Rainbows are my jam! And I'm not even sorry! I used Sassy & Crafty stamps and stencils to make rainbow cards and added some subtle shimmer with pearlized water.
Both of these cards were very easy to make, but definitely check out my video for some tips and tricks!
I used the new Stained Glass Hearts Stencil for this card. I'm OBSESSED! Just love this stencil! And that cute little unicorn is from the Peaches - Be Anything Stamp Set.
Of course I couldn't make a rainbow card without the new Create Your Rainbow stamps! I love how these two stamp sets pair together, but you can still use them individually! Thanks for joining me and I'll see you soon!

Erin Lee Creative | Rainbow 2 Card Kit Release & Blog Hop
Today is the day! The new Look on the Bright Side Card Kit from Erin Lee Creative is herrreee!! And yes, you need it! I made 5 cards with this kit ( and also show you how well this kit adds on to the first Rainbow Kit! ). More good news! There's a blog hop and we are giving away ONE KIT chosen from comments left across all of the blogs participating in this hop! Please leave a comment on any participating blog by Tuesday, September 8. The winner will be announced that week on the Erin Lee Creative Blog. The more you comment, the more chances to win!
The Look on the Bright Side Kit is just fabulous! There are no other words! Inside of the kit are two 4x6 stamp sets, a stencil, and a die! And an amazing add on stamp set is available! The Rainbow Alpha Stamp Set is a large 6x8 stamp set with the whole alphabet and an adorable little rainbow!
My first card is one of my favorites! I masked the stencil so that I would only ink the burst portion and added a die cut rainbow on top. I stamped my FAVORITE sentiment from the whole kit with black ink to complete this card.
This card is probably the easiest and simplest! I stamped the rainbow and sentiment from the Look on the Bright Side Kit and white heat embossed them on black watercolor cardstock. I used shimmer watercolors and created a rainbow of color behind the rainbow!
Oh how I love this one too! I incorporated the Rainbow Background Stamp from the Somewhere Card Kit ( the original rainbow kit! ) to show how well these kits pair together! I also used the rainbow image from the Rainbow Alpha Stamp Set - the add on for the Look on the Bright Side Kit. All of these products work together magically!
I created another mash up card using the Rainbow Background Stamp from the Somewhere Rainbow Kit and the Wonky Rainbow die from the new kit! I also brought in some Gold Holographic Cardstock and the Rainbow Alpha Stamp Set.
I used up pieces from my first card to create my last card! I had enough Wonky Rainbow die cut pieces remaining to create three complete rainbows, so I used all of them together on a slimline card and added a simple stamped sentiment.
I hope you've enjoyed these 5 cards using the BRAND NEW Look on the Bright Side Kit from Erin Lee Creative! You didn't hear it from me ... but the first rainbow kit sold out SO quickly! So run run run and snag this one! You won't regret it! And remember to hop along and leave comments for your chance to win this kit! Good luck!

Erin Lee Creative | NEW Peace, Love, & Happiness Kit
IT'S TIME! Erin Lee Creative has just released their second kit! This time it's all about Peace, Love, & Happiness!
This kit is packed with stencils, dies, clear stamps, and a background stamp! And has 20% savings! These items are not released individually and are only available in the limited Peace, Love, & Happiness Kit! Erin's first kit sold out so quickly, so act fast! You won't want to miss this!
I used the Retro Swirls Background Stamp from the Peace, Love, & Happiness Kit to create two quick rainbow cards!
I stamped the Retro Swirls Background Stamp onto two panels of Neenah Cardstock - once slightly to the top and once slightly to the bottom so that I would have two cards that were the same, but just a little different!
I colored both backgrounds with a whole rainbow of Copic Markers. I used two markers for each color blend to keep it nice and simple and just rotated through the colors of the rainbow until all of my swirls were colored.
There are two fabulous add on dies for this kit - the Retro Swirls A2 Die and the All You Need is Love Die. I LOVE that the All You Need is Love Die comes with the sentiment die and a shadow die! I cut the shadow from black cardstock and the sentiment from white cardstock and glued them together and popped them onto the cards with foam tape.
The Peace, Love, & Happiness Kit is full to the brim goodies! And I love that each of these products can be used endlessly! What a fantastic value! Don't forget about the add-on dies! Head on over to Erin Lee Creative and grab your kit before they're gone!

Simon Hurley create. | Rainbow Confetti Birthday Card
The Simon Hurley create. Bubble Wrap Stencil has become one of my favorite stencils ever! I love the wonky polka dots! Today I decided to make it into a rainbow confetti birthday card with some easy ink blending!
The Bubble Wrap Stencil is so versatile! You can blend a subtle polka dot background or go bold like I did! I wanted to have each wonky dot a different color, but I didn't want to work hard and mask off each polka dot. Lazy crafters unite! Haha! I used finger blender brushes so I didn't have to do any masking for my background at all!
I used Pixie Spray to adhere the Bubble Wrap Stencil onto a piece of Stark White Cardstock and went to town with my rainbow blending! I've found that Stark White Cardstock is the absolute BEST cardstock for ink blending. The colors of ink are so vibrant! I used a variety of Simon Hurley create. Dye Ink Pads - Bee Sting, Prom Queen, Traffic Cone, Slippery When Wet, Overzealous, Clear Skies, and Crown Me. I started with one color and blended 6 or 7 dots and then repeated the process with the other colors. I didn't have a rhyme or reason to my blending - I just made sure I didn't have the same color directly next to each other.
I wanted my confetti background to be the center piece and really stand out, so I decided to go simple with the rest of the card. I stamped and white heat embossed a sentiment from the Dudes Too! Stamp Set onto a die cut black circle and added it with foam to the center of the card.
That's everything! This was so easy to make, but I'm in LOVE and I hope you are, too!

LDRS Creative // Sweet Birthday Slimline Card
Everyone wants to have a delightfully sweet birthday, right? Today I'll be using LDRS Creative goodies and I'm going to show you how I stretched a stencil to make it cover a slimline card to make a rainbow birthday card!
Stretching a standard 6x6 stencil to fill a slimline card is easy! It just takes a little shifting! I created a slimline card that measures 3.25 x 8.25" and lined up the Plaid Stencil on the left side of the card. I used a piece of masking tape on the right side of the stencil just so that I wouldn't get ink where I didn't want it. I blended a rainbow of LDRS Creative Hybrid Inks over the stencil from left to right. The trick is to not blend all the way to the right edge of the stencil so that there are no hard edges. I started with Soft Kisses Hybrid Ink, then Tangerine Dream Hybrid Ink, and Banana Cream Pie Hybrid Ink. I lifted the stencil, shifted it to the right side of the card, lined it up with my ink blended pattern and continued blending with Prickly Pear Perfection Hybrid Ink, Marina Madness Hybrid Ink, and Boysenberry Blast Hybrid Ink. That leaves me with a beautiful Plaid Stencil rainbow across my slimline card!
What's a birthday card without something sweet? The Goody Gumdrops Stamp Set has so many sweet treats it was hard to choose! I have always loved hard candies, so I stamped the four candies with Raven Hybrid Ink and colored them with alcohol markers. I created a frame from white cardstock using the Slimline Scallop Die Set and adhered it over my stenciled background. The candies were blending in to the background, so I helped them stand out by using stitched circle die cuts from the Slimline Scallop Die Set. I cut the Happy B-Day Die three times from white cardstock and stacked the letters together for dimension. Want to see a fun trick to perfectly align the sentiment? Check out my video to see how I used the negative piece of the die!
I added a coordinating sentiment using the Essentials Stack Stamp Set with Raven Hybrid Ink and the Sentiment Stack Coordinating Die. The strip fits perfectly between the sentiment! And that finishes this yummy rainbow birthday card!

Erin Lee Creative // Somewhere Kit Release
Hiiiiii!! It's finally time! The Somewhere Kit from Erin Lee Creative is available RIGHT NOW! There are limited quantities so run and grab yours! This kit is FULL of all kinds of rainbow goodness! There's a 6x6 background stamp, TWO 4x6 clear stamp sets, TWO 6x6 stencils, and a die all packaged in a fun rainbow zipper pouch!
I made three cards to kick off the release of the Somewhere Kit. I call them rainbow cards with a punch of black. Can you have a punch of black? Why not! Usually there's a punch of color, but since these cards are so full of color I decided to add a bit of black in one way or another! For my first card I used the large rainbow stencil. I masked off each individual arch with a bit of Purple Tape and blended on some rainbow colors of inks! Before I removed my stencil I added flicks of water so the ink would react, then I removed the stencil and flicked on some black watercolor. I heat embossed a sentiment onto black cardstock, trimmed it out, and popped it up with foam tape. See?! A punch of black!
It's hard for me to pick a favorite of these three cards, but I can't get over these cute black hearts in the background! I started by stamping the cluster of four hearts from one of the 4x6 stamp sets in the Somewhere Kit all over the background of a white card. I used masking tape to mask off the individual arches of the rainbow stamp and created my focal rainbow. I stamped and white heat embossed a different sentiment onto black cardstock and trimmed it to go right under my rainbow. I love how the rainbow POPS off the card against the black hearts!
My last card is probably the easiest of the bunch! I used the 6x6 background stamp from the Somewhere Kit and inked it up with a whole rainbow of inks! I added some flicks of black paint and heat embossed yet another FABULOUS sentiment from the Somewhere Kit and added it to the card with foam tape! And just like that I have three AWESOME rainbow cards (with a punch of black!) from the Somewhere Kit! I truly ADORE this kit! I know I'll be creating more cards with it! RUN RUN RUN over to Erin Lee Creative to get your Somewhere Kit! I can't wait to see what you make!
