Mix and Match Rainbows

Do you ever have lots of little scraps of card, but are reluctant to throw them away?  I hate waste and so save all my scraps in colour folders ready for just the project I am going to share with you today, a Rainbow strip of scraps!

Materials Used:- Mix and Match Cardstock from left to right, 'Coral Reef' 15-001 15-002 15-003, 'Fall Festival' 16-001 16-002 16-003, 'Summer Sun' 17-001 17-002 17-003, 'Fern Green' 05-001 05-002 05-003, 'Blue Lagoon' 09-001 09-002 09-003, 'Periwinkle' 11-001 11-002 11-003, 'Purple Mountain' 12-001 12-002 12-003, 'Fuchsia Fantasies' 13-001 13-002 13-003. 'Puzzle Parts'  30-114, 'Petal Party' 30-113, 'Social Butterfly' 30-116.

I cut the scraps of card so that they were each the same width and then stuck onto a piece of white paper, I then stamped and clear embossed with puzzle parts, and trimmed into smaller strips (this way you have rainbows for several cards). I then stuck the strip onto a gloss black mount, mounted it onto white card and stamped the sentiment in Versafine Black ink below.

I then stamped and embossed the flower with black embossing powder onto vellum and cut out then glued to card adding a button in the centre.  The white blank was then mounted onto gloss black card blank to finish.
