Rainbow Card Set

I have wanted to make up this set of cards from this stamp set for ages. To keep it simple I picked one colour for each Bible verse and coloured with Prismacolour pencils. 

To make the frames pop, I mounted them on white card embossed with the very subtle 3D embossing folder from Stampin' Up.

Spring Crocuses

It's spring time in the northern hemisphere, but it's getting chilly down here.

I watercoloured the die cuts, with a light touch of embossing paste through a stencil for the background.

Flowing Flowers

Another mini card to the gift set ...

I added texture by using a die cut as an embossing plate.

Little Lavender Fields

I had made a card with the Hero Arts layering lavender fields but I wondered if it would also work on a smaller card as I was making a mini set of cards for a gift.

It came out way better than I thought it would. I was worried that the fields would lose their sense of depth, but it was not the case.

Here is a comparison between the normal size and half size cards.
