Hugs, Kisses and Rainbow wishes....... using Honey Bee Stamps to create the perfect card to send hope.

Good morning Crafty Friends,
I hope you are all doing well. I found that my card making has kept me occupied, during this lock down period. I wanted to make a batch of cards to send out to love ones at this time. I wanted them to know we are thinking about them. Seeing as the rainbow is the symbol of hope, and is being used a lot during this pandemic I thought the set from Honey Bee Stamps was just what I was looking for. I need a quick and simple design to mass produce as I wanted about six.

Getting your cloud stencil, use your blending brush or tool. Blend on the distress ink. Rotate the clouds to obtain a realistic sky.
Now remove the masking paper, and on a separate piece stamp the rainbow in alcohol friendly ink. Colour your image using your markers.
I fuss cut mine out the mounted it on some double sided tape.
Before adding it to my panel, I lined up where I wanted my sentiment and stamped that first in black ink.
