I have such a cute and fun card to share with you today! I'm featuring the Bright Skies Stamp Set and Dies today. One of my absolute favorites hands down! I'm also using the Everyday Arches Dies, if you don't have these on your wish list, add them now, they're amazing! This card was inspired by fellow demo Erica Cerwin, she made an amazing rainbow box and I wanted to turn it into a card, then I even took it a step further and turned it into a pop up card! What could be better!?
After messing around with measurements I finally settled on some that worked beautifully. Please note that when folded, your card will be slightly smaller than the standard 5 1/2" x 4 1/4" card base. It will still fit in an envelope so that's what counts. I used one of the cloud borders in the Bright Skies dies and cut the bottom flap of my card. Then I used the largest Everyday Arches Dies to cut the top of my card, only cut the top of the arch though, do NOT cut the bottom of the arch. Check out the video for more details.
I used a variety of colors for my rainbow, Poppy Parade, Peach Pie, Lemon Lolly, Summer Splash, Petunia Pop. I love the pops of white from the clouds too. The only embellishments I have on this card are the Rhinestones, the rainbow really stands out and you don't need to add more.
I added a pop up element inside with another cloud and a die cut sun, along with the greeting. This is a super simple pop up, simply fold into a rectangle and adhere to your card at the fold.
