Whenever the RAINBOW appears in
the clouds,
I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant
between God and
all living creatures
of every kind on the earth.
Genesis 9 : 16
Welcome to Digi Desserts Fridaze in connection with MyPaper Crafting ! We, on the Design Team, are to create a project using a
Digital File from the vast selection at MyPaperCrafting.com every Friday,
share them with You and encourage You to visit over there, get the FREE Digi
File for today, make a project with it and link it for all to see. The ‘winning’ designer is highlighted
next week as a Guest Designer!
It’s an easy and fun thing to do on the weekend!
For this week’s project I have made a Birthday Card for
someone I love very much who likes Rainbows very much! I used the ‘Happy Birthday Word Art ds’– and I put it on the inside as the sentiment.
* I love lace and
feminine things – She doesn’t so much – She likes things more plain. I just couldn’t resist at least using a
lacey border punch to create a Rainbow for the front of her card – and also
used some scraps, as we are both Thrifty!
The planning /figuring took some time, but I like the outcome. It's not one of my more ambitious endeavors, but nonetheless, made With Love. (I always think of things After-the-Fact that I could have added/changed, but I did want to keep it fairly simple -) I adhered the border strips to
white cardstock, trimmed it, adhered it to black cardstock pieces, then adhered
that to the card front.
* I used ‘sky’
wallpaper for the sky and other wallpapers mixed with the cardstock. I added two white clouds – one with a
stamped sentiment – one without.
* It was nice
that the colors on the Digi worked well with my rainbow colors! I did put it into my ‘Photo Effects
Free’ program and added the ‘Cracked Paint’ effect to it – which does show up
better In Person than in the photo here.
I then put it into my PSE 10 program and printed it on white
cardstock. I cut it, rounded
the corners and inked the edges before adhering it to the inside of the card.
I hope it brightens her birthday! ;-} Now You can brighten someone's day!

What a bright and cheery card! I love that you used the border punch on the colorful clouds. I think it is perfect! I don't think it makes it look too feminine either. I think your thrifty friend will love and appreciate it very much! It was clearly made with love! Thank you my friend for all that you do. May the Lord bless you abundantly and all the work of your hands :-)

What a unique card Lynden! I love the rainbow and love that you made the edges a little bit lacey! Nothing wrong with a little bit of lace is there?! Your HB digi is perfect and I love how you have the colors of the rainbow colored in on it! I think this is a great "pick me up" card and birthday card and I know your friend will love it!! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely colorful card. Love the rainbow and that you carried the colors on to the digi inside. You are so creative!
