Pride

 


Hello and happy Sunday.  June is Pride month, and I decided to focus my crafting on rainbows, including some color schemes that have special meaning in the LGBTQ+ community.  First up is this rainbow colored book case using a cling stamp from Hero Arts called Book Stacks and a sentiment from Literary Quotes.  I am entering this card at Stay Crafty With Hero #24: For the Guys, Rainbow Challenge #30: Radically Rainbow, and Use Your Stuff #424: Rainbows.






Next up is a traditionally colored rainbow using dies from Mama Elephant Offset Rainbow.  I colored each of the rainbow stripes with Copic markers, and I am entering this card at the same rainbow challenges above.  I am also entering this card as well as several others on this post to Happy Little Stampers Anything Goes with Dies.




These next two cards both use die cuts from Lil Inkers Clouds & Rainbow, and I am entering both of them at AAA Cards #192: One Corner.  I am also entering this first card at The Paper Players #545--these are some of my favorite colors to use together.





This next card is inspired by those rainbow challenges as well as the sketch at Inspired by #178.



And, while I had those stamps out, I made this rainbow card.  




Last up are two cards inspired by the challenge at Just Us Girls #588: No Stamping, and this first card follows the sketch at Freshly Made Sketches #489.





With die cut sentiments, it is actually pretty easy to make a card without stamping.  These cards were so easy to make because I used Mama Elephant Quick Stripes dies, which allowed me to quickly die cut lots of stripes without having to worry about making them all the same size.





Both of these cards use the colors representing the transgender community.





Both of these cards use the colors representing the lesbian community.




And, here are all my rainbows together. 




Thanks for Visiting
