Rainbow Happy Birthday

Congratulations to this week's Splitcoaststampers' Featured Stamper, diane morales.

I chose this card as my inspiration:

LIST: Colours (white, black, pink, blue, green), Techniques (heat embossing, die cutting), Elements (irregular vertical stripes, die cut sentiment, clear sequins, stitching on rectangle die cut, black frame)

INCLUDE: die cut sentiment, black frame

MODIFY: added colours to make a full rainbow, double-stencil technique to create my stripes, added flowers, inlaid my sentiment, used clear gems instead of sequins

EXCLUDE: heat embossing, stitching detail

SPIN: changed layout, added flowers

To create this look, I layered two stencils from A Colorful Life Designs - 4 Mid Century Shadow and Groovy Flower. I blended a rainbow of Catherine Pooler inks through and then spritzed with clear shimmer spray before removing the stencils.

I cut the sentiment from black cardstock and also from my rainbow panel, inlaid the black into the holes and added a black mat. I used some Magic Iris gems from Crafty Meraki as a finishing touch, in the flower centres.
