Just a happy feel good card







I had intentions of making a modern, geometric card for the challenge over at Runway Inspired Challenge but it just didn't happen. A few of my closest girl friends are going through a really hard time at the moment and I want to give them cards to cheer up and make them realize what wonderful people they are. I think this is the card I am going to make a few of and give to them, who doesn't feel good with a bright and colourful rainbow?. I only had an hour to make this card and post it, gave myself the challenge to do this and I think its going to happen, I am a sucker for rainbows and so had to take part in this challenge.

For this card the rainbow and clouds is a digital image that I printed straight onto the cardstock with the sentiment. I printed the clouds again at the same size, cut out and added to the card with dimensional foam.I cut out the green hill and birds from patterned paper and drew on the flower stems and added the pink button flowers, the hot air balloon is a chipboard piece.

The Challenges I have included-
RIC #4-Runway Inspired. I was inspired by the beautiful bright rainbow and the awesome green shoes which is the colour of the cut out hill.
The cutting and trimming challenge-Moxie Fab
Anything goes in the linking party-Make it Mondays


BTW a miracle has occurred, it's stopped raining in Sydney, lets hope it stays this way :)
