To begin my card I stamped the long line of hexagons along a piece of white cardstock. I used black ink and also clear embossed over them to make sure they didn't smudge at all. Once everything was stamped, I moved onto die cutting the hexagons to fit inside.
Before cutting them all out, I cut two pieces of watercolour paper into strips and ink blended all of them with a different colour of Distress Ink using rainbow colours. So one pink, one red, one orange etc. Once they were all inked I splattered them with water and dried them. I then used the largest hexagon die that comes with the coordinating dies and die cut 6 out of each colour. Once they were all die cut I added foam tape behind all of them.
I adhered all my hexagons in colour order into each of the stamped hexagons. So a line of pink, a line of red etc. Some of them I had to cut in half to make them fit on both ends, but six on m size of panel worked fine. Once they were all adhered I adhered my panel to a black card base.
For my sentiment, I used the Wishes Word Die and die cut it out of black cardstock. I added foam tape behind and adhered it to the right side of my card. I also then pulled the Oceans of Joy stamp set out and stamped the 'birthday' word from the stamp set onto black cardstock and white heat embossed it. I trimmed it out on my trimmer and adhered it to my card also and that finished up my card.
Thanks for stopping by today, I love making rainbow cards - they're always so fun and easy to pull together! Hope you were inspired and I'll catch you all next time!
