Inky Paws Challenge #199 - Rainbow Theme

I love love love rainbow colors!! It's a wonderful color combo to play with and I couldn't wait to get inky for this challenge!

This is a pretty simple card and it's a big one! It measures 10 x 7"; scored at 5" for an A7 card. I blended my clouds over the Clouds Stencil from Newton's Nook Designs onto a large piece of white card stock using Distress Oxide inks. I used Candied Apple, Carved Pumpkin, Mustard Seed, Mowed Lawn, Salty Ocean, and Wilted Violet Distress Oxide inks. I got a little heavy handy as I worked my way up the card but I love the dimension that it gives the clouds!

I die cut my large panel using the stitched scallop die from the A7 Frames & Banners Die Set. I was going to adhere my panel to a purple card front but decided to just go with the white background of the A7 card base.

I stamped the adorable kitty from the Newton's Umbrella Stamp Set with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored it up with the following Copic markers:

Kitty ~ C00, C1, N0, N2, N4, N8, YR15, RV10, RV21, Colorless Blender

Umbrella ~ V000, V12, V15, C00, C1, C3, N0, N2, N4, N8, Colorless Blender 

I die cut the kitty using the coordinating Newton's Umbrella Die Set. I stamped the sentiment using the Memento Tuxedo Black ink and die cut with a stitched circle die from the Circle Frames die set. I adhered the kitty directly to the card using liquid glue. To add a bit more dimension on the card, I used foam tape to pop up the sentiment.

Sending Fuzzy Cuddles

Hello! I am loving Heffy Doodle's Beary Big Heart! I'm a bit of a Pluviophile... I'm not sure that it's an actual word, but I've seen it around. It means a lover of rain; someone who finds joy and peace of mind during rainy days. I love the rain! I always have.

When I saw the cute umbrella in the Beary Big Heart set, I knew I had to make a card with rain so I could use the umbrella stamp. I still had my Nuvo Mousses out on my desk so I dived in!! Using a blending tool I sponged some Aquamarine mousse on a piece of white card stock. I then die cut it out using the My Favorite Things Blueprint 14 Die-namics set. I dug through my stencil collection to find a raindrop stencil. Using microfiber tape I taped down my stencil over the white card stock and then used a spatula to add some Pacific Teal mousse. I love this monochromatic look to the card! I decided to stick with it and colored the umbrella with some blue green copic markers {BG10, BG18, BG72}. I love grey with teal so the little bear just had to be grey... I used copics to color him in too {N1, N3, N4, N5}. I die cut some dark teal card stock and layered that on a 5" x 5" white card base. I popped up the white raindrop panel. I then grabbed a scrap of the dark teal card stock... I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment using a fine white embossing powder. I fussy cut the banner end and then popped that up on the card. I adhered the umbrella to the bear and then adhered them to the card. I love that the bear looks happy in the rain!

Here's a picture to show some of the shimmer from the Nuvo mousses! I just love it!

I really hope that you enjoyed the card that I shared today. If you're loving the Beary Big Heart stamp set... it's still available in the store!!

Thanks for stopping by!

See ya next time.
