Rainbow Merry Christmas

Happy Monday! I'm sharing a card for the current CAS Christmas Challenge, hosted by the amazing Trina (Phamtastic Design). Here's my rainbow themed card:

Supplies: Paper - Bazzill A2 card; Neenah; Paper Studio

Dies - Spellbinders How Does Your Garden Grow Alphabet;

Sunny Studio Slimline Pennant Dies &

Window Quad Circle Dies

Other - various Distress Inks;

CZ Designs Sentiment Strips Reverse Christmas

I first sponged Distress inks in rainbow colors onto a white panel, then die cut my letters. Funny aside, I cut the word HAPPY instead of MERRY at first - must've been thinking of birthday cards I need!! Luckily, I had enough of the rainbow panel to cut the second word. 😀😀

I stacked the rainbow letters with a set of thick white ones, then added a black shadow. Adhered the letters onto a white card but had to cut it down since the top corner of the card got wrinkled. I used a slimline stitched pennant die with the ends cut off. Added the panel to a red card and popped up the Christmas strip. Decided the M didn't have enough red so added a red poinsettia with gem - done!!

Thanks to Trina & the CAS Christmas team for a fun challenge! I need these challenges to keep up my Christmas card production, although I'm lagging a bit behind last year....

**Update** - At Gundi's invitation, I'm also adding to the Day of the Month Card Club Find a Rainbow Day challenge. Thanks Gundi (papierelle)!!

Thanks for stopping and have a crafty week!!
