Most of these colours come from Daisy Meadows Paper Packet + Sticker Sheet but I chose to use mostly cardstock to make my card. 

I grabbed out my brand new Build-a-Rainbow Thin Cuts. Then I pulled out 

Glacier Cardstock, Peacock Cardstock, Desert Rose Cardstock, Sundance Cardstock, and the peach paper from the Mix-in Paper Packet (Jul–Aug). A lot of these colours are found in the Daisy Meadows Coordinating Cardstock.

I used washi tape and stuck the 4 parts of the rainbow together and cut it out 4 times in each of the below colours and mixed and matched them to get 4 different rainbows. I used two of them in my two cards but have 2 left for next cards. I changed around the pattern a bit too. 

For the title I grabbed the After the Rain stamp (on sale April 2021) but didn't want to use the rainbow on it, just the sentiment. So I had to create a mask to just get the words to put on my cloud. I grabbed a sticky note that is sticky all over and stamped on it and cut out the words. Then I stamped over the mask to get the title for the cloud. I had cut some Glacier clouds first but it was too hard to line up the title cause I couldn't see through so I stamped first and then ran the cloud thin cut through my big shot.  I used Black Exclusive Inks™ Stamp Pad

Hopefully the photo below will show my process. 

I was happy with the final projects. On the other card I grabbed out a "thinking of you" stamp set that is retired and didn't use clouds.

To adhere the rainbow, I used Dual-tip Permanent Glue Pen, and to  finish the rainbow off, I added a couple of Bitty Sparkles. 

Thanks so much for dropping by to check out my latest project. Hope you can join in the Colour My Heart Colour Dare Challenge #440 too. I'm really interested to hear what you think about my cards, so I'd love you to leave a comment. See you again soon, subscribe to my blog so you don't miss a challenge.
