Welcome to another Your Creative Connection tour, #YCC105. Our theme today is: A Rainbow for You
The inspiration for my card today is a song we sang in Girl Scouts, “I Can Sing a Rainbow” (I’m singing it right now as I type). It’s actually one of my favorites from my Girl Scout experience…oh the memories! To see the lyrics, scroll down below the supply list. But I digress…
As I was singing it, I thought,”how can I make a card using the song as my inspiration?” Duh! My Million Sales Achiever stamp set, Music from the Heart. Of course, it’s a perfect choice!
How’d She DO That? Music of the Heart Rainbow card
- Stamps: Music from the Heart, Beautiful You
- Paper:
- Whisper White Thick (8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ card base)
- Whisper White (3-7/8″ x 5-1/8″)
- Basic Black or Highland Heather (4″ x 5-1/4″)
- Ink: Tuxedo Black Memento, Poppy Parade, Daffodil Delight, Flirty Flamingo, Granny Apple Green, Highland Heather, Pumpkin Pie, Bermuda Bay
- Other: Heart Epoxy Drops, SNAIL
DOstamping Tips:
- Generation Stamping:
- Ink up “shadow” image (from Beautiful You stamp set), stamp off on a scrap paper first. Then stamp on music staff, for the card above. Don’t re-ink yet, but stamp again on the music staff, for the card below. Gives you multiple generations of color! Plus you can make two cards at the same time!
- For card above – stamp “heart notes” with black ink. Stamp small hearts with various matching colors and add small Heart Epoxy Droplets to small hearts.
- For card below – stamp “heart notes” with matching color & add medium Heart Epoxy Droplets to notes.
What do you think? Do you prefer card #1 or card #2?
Get out a rainbow of colors and the Music from the Heart stamp set, and have fun creating your own rainbow of color card!
