I Heart Rainbows

For my 18th “A Card a Day in May” and it falling on a Monday, I wanted to do something with rainbow colors and Detailed Heart die because I haven’t played with it yet and rainbows are always a fun way to start the week! I chose my color pallet and sponged the colors across a piece of cardstock and then ran it though the die cutting machine with the Detailed Heart die.

I love how it turned out! I wanted the focus to be in the die so I added the sentiment from the Waterfront stamp set and cut it with the Stiched So Sweetly dies. I added the gold thread from the new Forever Greenery Trim Combo and then I used mini staples to attach the panel at an angle to the card.

 
The colors I used were Poppy Parade, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green and Pretty Peacock

TOP TIP: An easy way to adhere the Detailed Hearts die is to use Tombow glue with a sponge. Simply cut a Stampin’ Sponge into quarters. Squirt some Tombow into a container (I keep all of my empty embellishment containers to use for stuff like this) and dab the sponge into it. On the back of your Detailed Heart die, dab this sponge all over to get coverage. Flip and attach to your project! It is so fast and easy!

This was my first time playing with the Detailed Hearts die!

Sometimes you don’t need a lot of ‘stuff’ to make a card really special.  I kept things simple on this one!
