Sending You Sunshine and Rainbows
Here's my card for the current sketch at CAS(e) this Sketch. I rotated the sketch to work with the cheery rainbow image from the Paper Smooches Luminous Spring stamp set.
With the help of my MISTI, I stamped the rainbow on a white panel, extending the length of the stripes of color just a bit. The rainbow was colored in with Copic markers. I shaded the clouds just a bit, then added some sparkle with a clear glitter brush marker. The set's "wishing you sunshine and rainbows" sentiment was stamped next to the rainbow in black ink. I used distress ink and a brush to add a sky-like background to the panel. I think I may have liked it more before I added the sky, but once I got started, there was no turning back . . . A few silver sequins brought in a bit more sparkle to the simple design. After matting the panel on silver cardstock, I adhered it to a blue card base to match the sky background.
Materials Used:
Luminous Spring and Spectrum stamp sets (Paper Smooches); Memento Tuxedo Black ink (Tsukineko/IMAGINE Crafts); markers (Copic); clear Sparkle glitter pen (Spectrum Noir); Tumbled Glass distress ink (Ranger); Cool Caribbean cardstock (Stampin' Up!); Recollections silver cardstock (Michaels); silver sequins
