Over the Rainbow at Polkadoodles

Good morning folks, blue sky, sunshine and a long weekend off work :-) I'm planning to get all the nasty housey jobs done this morning and then with any luck I can spend the afternoon in the garden colouring, I'm easily pleased lol. This morning sees a brand new challenge at Polkadoodles, and this time we're going 'Over the Rainbow', as always there's a fab prize up for grabs and lots of inspiration from my lovely teamies so if you've got a minute do pop over to the challenge blog and have a look

For my DT card I've used the gorgeous new Rose Budd Collection CD from Polkadoodles, Nikky has crammed this new collection with gorgeous characters plus loads and loads of other goodies too - there's everything from 3d templates, to embellishments, inserts and some fabulous background scenes too

I've used one of those lovely background scenes for this card, along with two of the digi stamps that I've coloured with Graph'It markers and fussy cut before popping up on 3d foam pads. I've layered them up over one of the beautiful backing papers and added lace and seambinding, topping the bow off with a paper flower from my stash.

I decided to create my rainbow from the precoloured embellies on the CD and used both bows and butterflies in rainbow colours, adding a few little pearls to finish off

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:

Crafting by Design: anything goes

Crafty Ribbons: anything goes with ribbon

Glitter and Sparkle: use a digi

Homemade Harbour: pretty

Through the craft room door: anything goes

Whoopsi Daisy: anything goes
