OVER THE RAINBOW SPRING CARDS | with Tya

If you are looking for a burst of color and joy in your cardmaking, the Over the Rainbow collection is pure magic! I had the best time creating these six handmade cards using this bright and whimsical collection, along with the Cards and Envelope kit that coordinates with the collection. From the playful patterns to the charming little icons, the variety in this collection made it so fun and easy to mix and match elements. Each card came together with its own personality, and I can't wait to share them with you - so let's see what I made!

My first card is one of the larger ones in the card and envelope kit, so it was super fun to build up this little scene with the Mushroom House and the darling little gnome on his mushroom! I loved the clouds on the pattern paper - which is from the 6x6 paper pad along with the green dot paper. I cut it in a little wave on the top to mimic a grassy little hill. A sweet sunshine die cut peeks out as well. A few of the tiny flowers from the Spring Garden Shape Sprinkles add a touch of shine.

All the bright colors are featured here on this cute card with a lucky theme! The cute notebook die cut from the Bits and Pieces made for a great base to layer up lots of different die cuts and from the Odds and Ends and Chit Chat die cuts. More shine is here to with the use of the shape sprinkles. Notice the cute little green twine bow too! It adds some great texture!

We all need an extra thank you card lying around for when we need one in a hurry - so I whipped up this little cutie! I love this tree and the cute bunny makes this card extra warm and cheery! The Thank you sentiment is from the This and That Sticker Sheet and the bold pink color really pops! A few Sprinkle enamel dots add just the right amount of shine and color!

These longer-shaped cards are so fun to work with and are the perfect spot to add the label-shaped sticker from the This and That Sticker Sheet like I did here! This cute as can be little gnome couple look perfect centered on this card front. Surrounded by a few speech bubble die cuts from the Chit Chat die cuts - this card is one of my favorites! Don't forget to add the hearts as well and more shiny flower Sprinkles.

One more long-shaped card base is found in the card and envelope pack so I used this one for this adorable bold rainbow die cut from the Chit Chat. Paired with the cute gnome in a hot air balloon die cut from the Odds and ends - this cute rainbow-themed card will be sure to brighten anyone's day! I love the little rainbows found on my pattern paper too! So cute!

Everything is cuter when its mini right? This mini 3x3 inch card included in the card and envelope kit was so fun to put together! The collection is full of gnomes and this cute little lassy was just asking to take center stage on this card! The wee little Hello sign is from the Odds and Ends and makes for a sweet little greeting on this mini card.
