Rainbow Paisley

 I’m not good at rainbow color cards. I always seem to have difficulty getting the combinations to look harmonious. So here is another try - a rainbow color card for the Pinkfresh Studio September Challenge: Rainbow. As I was skimming ideas I saw this “Jacob’s Coat Technique” card by Dawn Griffin and thought I’d give it a shot.

The colors I used underneath were green, yellow, orange, red, & violet. I used a navy blue on top & for the bottom mat. Then I added some clear rhinestones, a sheer white ribbon, & a white cardstock “hello”. That’s it! 

I do like this technique, I’ll probably try it again with fewer colors & a different stamp. Wouldn’t it also look pretty done with different shades of the same color? Maybe shades of blue using my big flourish stamp?

Thanks for stopping by!
