Project: A rainbow texture paste card for MAWTT
I absolutely LOVE our rainbow challenge at Moving Along with the Times this week. I decided to do something a bit artsy and I loved where I ended up. I used a big block stripe stencil to create my rainbow with Distress Oxides.
I then used a cloud stencil with white texture paste to create the clouds. I went over them a few times and I liked the texture being a bit irregular. I had to be very careful to make sure the clouds were fairly consistent as the thin initial layers were too transparent and didn't look white enough. The sentiment is one I got second hand and I think it works so well with the layout.
I wanted to keep everything else simple - I tried bling and glitter and all sorts of things but decided clean was the best way.
Hope the challenge inspires your entries as well!

Amazing, looks even better here! I really love the broken bits of cloud, very artsy fartsy as Jenn Shurkus would say. The sentiment was made for this card. Cx
