Tuesday Morning Sketches #702

 Hello, hello, hello!  So glad you're here.  I do love it when you stop by for a visit.  The latest sketch is up for Tuesday Morning Sketches and it's a fun one and easy one.  And we're collaborating with a fellow challenge blog called Double Trouble Challenges.  The challenge is our sketch paired with their color challenge - ROYGBIV.  Traditional rainbow colors or feel free to change that up.

My card, I went all out with rainbows.  Paper, image, the nine yards.


The paper is an old paper pad I've had forever from Echo Park.  The image is Glimmer Kit from a year or two ago from Spellbinders.  I hot foiled the rainbow and arches with gold hot foil onto white card stock and then ink blended the different colors on.  The red came out a little darker than I anticipated but I was committed.  The sentiment, from the same set, is foiled in rainbow hot foil.

Overall, this was a really simple note card to put together that is sure to brighten anyone's day.

This challenge will run for two weeks so you have lots of time to play along and we hope to see you join both challenges.

Fantastic card! Love the polka dot paper and the foiled rainbow, so glad you joined us over at Double Trouble. I just now realized we are friends from CTRU, we never discuss or share our blogs or challenges there so it has taken me a while to put two and two together!
