Love You



Hi there, blog friends! Today starts a new challenge at Addicted to CAS ~ Ceal is our Hostess, and she is challenging everyone to create a card using the Code Word ‘Rainbow’. Our very special Guest Designer is Hannelie and she has created a gorgeous card for this challenge!

I channeled my inner 'Laura Bassen' for this prompt...here is my card:
                         

I started by creating a mask with a heart die, then used my drifts/hills stencil with a rainbow of distress inks to create the pattern. It's hard to see on screen, but I used black metallic cardstock for the die-cut word, and it looks amazing in person!

We would love to see how the code word ‘Rainbow’ inspires you! If you would like to see inspiration from the Design Team, and play along with us, come on over and check out the ATCAS Blog  ~

Thanks so much for stopping by,







Supplies:
Stamps: Simon Says Stamp - All My Love (you)
Dies: Reverse Confetti - Lovey Words; MFT - Stitched Hearts, Skinny Strips
Stencils: MFT - Drifts/Hills
Misc: DCWV - Metallic Cardstock; Tim Holtz - Distress Inks; Lucy's Things - Clear Gems

What a wonderful way to add rainbow colors. I just love this wonderful idea. It came out so beautifully. We are on LBI for this Memorial Day Weekend to start the weirdest summer ever. So glad we can be here for a couple more weekends before our renters come. I always think of you when I am here. Have a lovely weekend.

You fully embodied Laura with this wavy rainbow heart, Barb! So clever of you to use your hill stencil stencil to make the fun flow-y rainbow colors! Love the placement of the sediment and bling, too! Take care! Hugs, Darnell

Beautifully inked Laura. I mean Barb. I love that it isn't inked solid so the white shows through and emphasizes the curves.
