Painting a Rainbow with Guest Jennifer Ingle


Hi!  This is Jennifer Ingle from Just Jingle here with you one more time!  Today I have two super fun cards to share with you showcasing how to use twine as the PRIMARY embellishment on your card.  I LOVE twine, so I really enjoy using it as the focal point on cards and projects! For my first card, I used the fabulous Buttercream twine and coiled into circles to use as the embellishments on this card.

I just love how something so simple can become so fabulous with just a bit of manipulation! My second card utilizes LOTS of colors of twine...a full rainbow, in fact!  All of these colors are included in the Ultimate Sampler Pack.  I combined the twine with a perfect sentiment for a card full of color!

If You're Feeling Blue...

To create the rainbow block, I simply cut a rectangle of cardstock slightly smaller than what I wanted the finished block to be (the twine adds some bulk, so you want room for that!) and then wrapped an equal number of rows of each color.  I adhered the block to the card and stamped the sentiment beside it!

If You're Feeling Blue

I hope you have enjoyed the ideas I have shared with you!  
Have a super fabulous day! 

Jingle out.
