Unicorn Rainbow on Launch Day

Hello lovely peeps


Woo hoo! It's launch day for Simply Sweet Stamps, have you been saving your pennies? :D

There are ten different sets, which are available for you to get straight away in digi format. If digis are not your thing then you can pre-order them as rubber stamp sets instead.


So, here is my second card made with the Fabulous Unicorns set.




As usual, I designed my project in CraftArtist, positioning everything on a 15cm square. The rainbow was created with the Shapes tool - I made transparent circles with thick coloured outlines and laid one inside the other before cropping it down to a quarter circle.  This took quite a while to get right so to save you time I've included it here for you to download if you would like it (also added to my Freebies page).


I printed the rainbow, clouds and sentiment onto Sheena's Stamping Card then went over each colour of the rainbow one at a time with a wet paintbrush to give it a watercolour look.

The unicorn was printed off separately onto thinner card and coloured with pencils before cutting it out with a small border.

Please pop over to the Simply Sweet Stamps blog to see the samples made by my talented teamies with the other stamp sets - you will also find links of where you can buy them.


I would like to enter this in the following challenges:-
Paper Shelter Challenge #327 Things that fly
Dream Valley Challenges # 173 Things with wings
Sparkles Forum Challenges #101 Clean and Simple

Thanks for stopping by,
