Love Holds A Rainbow!

Hello!

For July ICR has taken a pause with its monthly CoasteRide Challenge...

But nevertheless, it still has its creative inkling for this month by means of Tutorials... (Tut)

There had been a Tutorial posted by Priyanka Mathur at the beginning of the month & here is the second part to the something we have called as

CoasteRide Jul-torials!
 My tutorial for today is A Rainbow Colored Card!

  Am not very good with colors... As in, My mind & fingers do not sync in well to play with colors.... which makes me fear of me messing up the already existing idea on the canvas... Saying so I still tried a Rainbow Card for my tutorial today... 

The card was inspired by the Sketch from Freshly Made Sketches....  

Preparation:

The card here on the show is based 4" X 6" ... That's the standard size I like to play with regularly.... 

• Cut Your Card Base the size you are comfortable with & keep it aside...

• Stamp an image (outlined image only so to add in colors later)of your choice on a piece of Cardstock which would be die cut with the complimenting die, with embossing ink & heat emboss it with white embossing powder... I used the Altenew Persian Motifs!
• On another cardstock piece which would be used for layering, of a color of your choice; I chose black though the water colors do not show really well on black... I stamped the petals stamp & heat embossed them with white embossing powder...

• Now playing with the watercolors of your choice fill in the embossed outline image with rainbow colors toned up or down to meet your requirement for the outcome...
• With the complimenting die, die cut the image out after the colors have dried...

• The layering cardstock with the embossed images would be water colored with your tone of rainbow colors....
• Once you are ready with the basic ingredients for your card, its time to put them together to shape up your project... {I preferred to layer it from within which wanted me to cut out a coordinating open on my card base & I then layered the cardstock on the inside of the card facing the card front}

• Once you close the card base the embossed layer shows up through the die cut space... 
• You may go ahead & embellish the card as you may choose to... {I wanted a lil more of the rainbow colors on my card; hence opted to dab them out on my card front for which I used the positive of a stitched rectangle set from Cottage Cutz... I placed it on the layered front open face down.}

• I then went on a color dabbing spree with a not so thick paint brush as I wanted tiny dots of rainbow colors only
• Once done I removed the masked layer & added another layer for a frame, die cut with the Stitched rectangle Die....
• I printed out my own sentiment & pinned it up to the die cut motif & glued them down on the card base with few pop dots from Itsy Bitsy...

Now there goes my Rainbow Colored Card for the CoateRide Jul-Torial!

Hope to have you play with us....

UNTIL NEXT, KEEP THE FAITH!!!
