This week at The Friday Mashup Heidi has a fun, colourful challenge for us. As St. Patrick's Day is just around the corner, Heidi would like to see some rainbows in our projects!
I started out with a strip of Soft Sky cardstock and punched out 8 chevrons using the Chevron Punch. Then I cut chevrons out of 8 different colours (Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Gumball Green, Pacific Point, Island Indigo and Elegant Eggplant).
Once all those were cut out, I inlayed them into the open slots on the banner. It came out looking so cool (if you ask me!). I reinforced the back with another banner, to make sure the chevrons didn't pop out, but the hold was quite amazing actually!
Finished off with the hardwood background stamp embossed in white and a few little rhinestones.
Check out the challenge this week:
- Create a project using the "Sketch"
- Create a project with "Rainbows or Rainbow Colours"
- Or Mash it Up and create a project with the "Sketch and Rainbow or Rainbow Colours"
Thanks for stopping by today!
