Sending Rainbow Hug Card with Deco Foil

HELLO CRAFTY FRIENDS!! 
Larissa here today to share some SWEET Sending Lots of Hugs Cards PERFECT for those in your life that are making a difference every day!! Now more than ever, we NEED to send Happy Mail to lift them up and to let them know that we CARE!!

I started by looking through my stash to figure out what Supplies I had on hand that I could use to create the Design I had in my head!! If you are like me, you probably have some dies in your stash that NEED some TLC!! I found some Poppy Stamp Dies that were PERFECT for the Heart and Card Panel and then I used a Lawn Fawn Die for the Rainbow and the Smaller Heart!!

I wanted to make the Rainbow from the different colors of Deco Foil Flock Sheets!! SWOON!! A FUZZY Rainbow is sure to BRIGHTEN someone’s day!! I used Ruby Red, Orange Glow, Sunshine Yellow, Green Envy, and Blue Diamond!! I adhered some Easy Cut Adhesive Sheets to Cardstock and then adhered the Deco Foil Flock Sheets face down onto the Adhesive covered Cardstock and ran it through my Die Cutting Machine to burnish the Flock into the adhesive!! Then I removed the backer sheet and Die Cut the Rainbow from the Flocked Cardstock!! You can create 5 different Rainbows after cutting all of the Colors, just by rearranging the way that the Colors go together!! So that means you can create 5 Cards all at one time!!

I fussy Cut a Backer Piece of Cardstock just so I could adhere all of the pieces together to make it easier to add to my Project, but this step isn’t necessary!! How BEAUTIFUL is that Rainbow!!?? It just makes me HAPPY!!

Next, I used my Stencil Pal and applied some Gina K Designs Iridescent Glitz Glitter Gel over a piece of Luxury White Gina K Designs Cardstock and let it Dry!! I also applied it over some Inked Cardstock because I wasn’t sure what color I wanted the Heart to be!! In the end, though I ended up just Die Cutting the Heart from the White Iridescent Glitz Glitter Gelled Cardstock and I adhered the Heart onto the Flocked Rainbow using some Zots Bling Adhesive Dots!!

I Stamped and Embossed the Sentiment in the matching Curve of the Rainbow onto the Heart Die Cut and then I adhered the Flocked Rainbow using Ultra Bond Adhesive!! I Die Cut the Card Panel and Inked it with some Tumbled Glass and Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide Inks!! Added some Water Splatters and some Black Soot Distress Paint Splatters and then adhered the Heart in the center using some Gina K Designs Foam Tape!!

I created this second card exactly the same way only I used the Simon Says Stamp Wonky Heart Dies and Wonky Rectangle Dies!! Just to show that you can use what you have in your stash to create a similar design no matter what Decorative Dies you might have!!

I wanted to make the Rainbow from the different colors of Gina K Designs Fancy Foils!! SWOON!! A Glittery Rainbow is sure to BRIGHTEN someone’s day!!
I used Radiant Red, Dazzling Orange, Glimmering Gold, Glittering Green, and Brilliant Blue!! I Cut a Piece of Deco Foil Toner Sheets and then Cut a Piece of the Fancy Foil and placed it over the Toner Sheet!! Making sure that the Shiny Color side is facing up!! Then I ran it through my Laminating Machine!! I removed the Backing Film and then Die Cut the Rainbows!! You can create 5 different Rainbows after cutting all of the Colors, just by rearranging the way that the Colors go together!! So that means you can create 5 Cards all at one time!!

I fussy Cut a Backer Piece of Cardstock just so I could adhere all of the pieces together to make it easier to add to my Project, but this step isn’t necessary!! How BEAUTIFUL is that Rainbow!!?? It just makes me HAPPY!!

I also applied it over some Inked Cardstock because I wasn’t sure what color I wanted the Heart to be!! In the end, though I ended up just Die Cutting the Heart from the White Iridescent Glitz Glitter Gelled Cardstock and I adhered the Heart onto the Foiled Rainbow using some Zots Bling Adhesive Dots!! I Stamped and Embossed the Sentiment in the matching Curve of the Rainbow onto the Heart Die Cut and then I adhered the Foiled Rainbow using Ultra Bond Adhesive!! I Die Cut the Card Panel and Inked it with some Tumbled Glass and Bluesketch Print Distress Oxide Inks!!
