Easy Distress Rainbow Cards

Hey peeps.  I’m back today with a new tutorial using rainbows are my inspiration.  So it’s Easy Distress Rainbow Cards up on the blog.  I’m been feeling like I’m losing my mojo and I needed a way to get excited about crafting again.  What better way than to pull out some rainbow influenced colors and make a few cards.

For my cards today I used distress oxide inks, rainbow foil and a stencil.  There are so many ways to be inspired when making a rainbow cards and there are so many variations of styles and techniques.  I’m going to share three with you in the tutorial that I hope inspire you to pull out your colorful paper and get busy. Here’s a few picks of the card before we get started.  The first cards I just pulled out my distress oxide inks and got busy.  I love how simple and colorful this card came out.

 

 

For my next card I used the distress stripe toner sheets from Therm-O-Web and the rainbow shattered glass foil.  Oh this foil is soooo yummy and beautiful.  I have all the products I used listed below.

 

 

And for my last card, I pulled out a stencil and used the transfer gel and rainbow foil to create a fun distressed circle background.

Working My Green With A St. Patrick’s Day Deco Foil Birthday Card

Hey peeps.  I’m working my green today making a St. Patrick’s Day Deco Foil card.  My birthday is on St. Patrick’s day and it’s a special on this year because my twin and I are turning 50!  Yes we made it to this fabulous age and I couldn’t be happier.  You see when I turned 40 I was diagnosed with colon cancer.  It was the scariest time of my life and for my family.  We were so fortunate that the cancer was easily removed and I am almost 10 years cancer free.

Anyway back to the St. Patrick’s Day card for my sister. I started with a beautiful blend of distress oxide inks for my background.  Next I added some splattered gold splatter to the background as well.  Wanting to pull in some beautiful gold foil on my card, so I grabbed my deco foil foam adhesive sheets and foil sheets and got busy.

My completed card looked great with all the gold and green.  Perfect for St. Patrick’s Day. You can see more of the deco foil in action on this video I made during my holiday card series.

Holiday Card Series 2018 – Day 4

Hey peeps.  It’s Monday and I’m back with the Holiday Card Series 2018 – Day 4.  I’m so excited to share with you an easy technique to produce really great cards.  No stamping required for this one and it’s easy to mass product.

For my card today I’m using foil, scor-tape and a large graphic die cut to make quick, fast and a hurry cards.  You can pull out any color foil for this project and any width scor-tape.  The design concept is easy to follow and you can change it up anyway you want.

 

Pairing the foil with a light sheet of vellum tones down the harshness and adding glitter paper for the sentiment really makes this card stand out.
