Rainbow of Roses Card

Hello! Misty (@Mommyofkidz) here today

to share a cute little St. Patty's Day card with you. 

I have ZERO natural talent when it comes to 

card making, so I usually leave that to the pros.

However, I have been wanting to do this 

"Rainbow of Roses" card for quite a while now! 

I started with ribbons and roses from the Really Reasonable Ribbon store

 and an svg. bundle from Bonnie Garby Designs. 

Also, if you have Cricut Design Space, you can find 

many of her images there as well.  

I actually think this one may have actually come from there. 

I cut the entire image in white cardstock and used distress inks to add the colors. I found matching ribbons and tiny rose buds to match each color that I used in my rainbow. I used the Wild Orchid 10mm Pastel Open Roses  and they were the perfect size for this project. All of the ribbons are 3/8 inch Swiss Dots grosgrain except the one chevron which I think came from an assortment pack.  Once I had all my materials gathered, I set to work making it come to life. 

 

Once it was inked, I added the outlines using a white gel pen and

then attached the ribbons and roses. I added each piece to the backing that I had cut with black cardstock, and added the faux stitching outlines to that as well. Notice that I let the ribbons cascade down past the end of the card?  I was hoping to make it look like the rainbow was continuing...like never-ending. I don't know how well that worked...but that was the thought behind it.

Either way, I liked the extra effect that it created. 

Finally, I added the entire rainbow to my gatefold card that I had prepared with a bit of distress inks and heavy white gesso to create a cloud background while also adding a bit of texture. 

As I mentioned in the beginning, I have ZERO natural talent when it comes to cards.  When I was finished with all of the design process, I realized that I didn't leave any space on the front for a sentiment! 

This is why I leave the card making to the Pros!!!

Thank you all for stopping by today. 

I hope that I have inspired in some way. If you like this card, head on over to Really Reasonable Ribbon to collect all the supplies! Stay Crafty My Friends!! 

Sweet Rainbow decorated card w/Rainbow flowers

 

Hello crafty friends and happy Friday to you all! Today's card was designed for Really Reasonable Ribbon using the gorgeous Delicate Satin ribbon, and beautiful Rainbow flowers, I will list all that I used below. Also I used this sweet Alicorn stamp from TLC Designs, isnt she just darling!? 

You know me, I love doing the insides of my cards, and this one was done using TLC Designs Stencil to create a border on the inside.

For my card I chose to use this darling Rainbow to dreamland Recollections dp pack. I thought it would work perfectly with the alicorn and RRR Rainbow flowers and ribbon.

To start with I picked the papers I wanted, and then cut and layered them all. Next I chose my dies, and stamp. I stamped up Alicorn in black ink, and then colored her using copics. for her body I used Unicorn stickles and that's how she shimmers so pretty. I then fussy cut her out. Next I picked all my flowers, and on this one I chose the Pastel Rainbow Open roses in 20mm, 15mm, and 10mm, now that large flower is Chelsea Rose in rainbow colors. I also used the Mini Sweetheart blossoms in Rainbow for filler flowers, and lastly I used the Rose buds in Pink and blue. I will post links to all below for easy finding. for the sentiment I stamped it on a white card stock and then dusted or distressed in blue , yellow and pink ink to give a little rainbow feel. lastly I added some Daisy pearls to the corners.

Really Reasonable Ribbon supplies used:

• Chelsea Rose Rainbow
• Mixed Rainbow Mini Sweetheart Blossoms
• Open Roses Pastel Rainblow in 20mm, 15mm, and 10mm

Rainbows + Stars = A Magical Day!

Hello there! Linsey here today sharing one of my favorite recent cards made featuring fabulous ribbons from RRR! I love rainbow colors and I also love stars, so this card came together like magic!

I made this card using the ribbons from the Bright Colors Grosgrain with Silver Metallic Edges Assortment. Space ribbons and graduate each piece about a 1/2" further than the next. Add 3D foam stars with rainbow craft foils and glitter on top and adhere to ends of each ribbon. Add stamped sentiment, attach to card base and done! The silver metallic edges of the grosgrain ribbons coordinate perfectly with the silver glittery part of the stars and the rainbow colors go great with each other too! 

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you have a wonderful weekend filled with love and happiness! Until next time, happy crafting! 😊
