Last Week’s Card & Cuppa – Natural Botanicals Rainbow

As we’ve had so much rain lately, I decided to brighten things up at last week’s Card & Cuppa class with this rainbow project.

It uses tone-on-tone with a colour combination of Basic Beige and Very Vanilla.

A strip of cardstock was held across the project while the leaves were stamped across the background. This was to avoid losing leaves behind the centre strip.

The leaves are from the Natural Botanicals Stamp Set. They were then coloured using Watercolor Pencils and a Blender Pen.

It was fun seeing this rainbow of leaves come to life during the colouring phase.

Next, a strip of Very Vanilla is stuck across the project to hide the masking. Any excess is then cut off.

Then, the sentiment from the Simply Said Stamp Set is stamped, again tone-on-tone and stuck onto the Vanilla piece. Once again, the excess is removed.

Finally, a couple of Antique Pearls are added to either side of the project.

This is a great design to replicate and you could use different colours and stamp sets.

Happy crafting
