My hopes to make a reminder card as their May guest designer for the CAS Mix Up May 2021 Rainbow challenge materialized! Thanks, Jenny! My reminder card evolved, as cards often do.
What started with a girl, a gorgeous stencil, her blending brushes, some rainbow colored distress oxides inks, and a simple piece of Bristol card stock - quickly turned sour! But guess what happened? I took a wonderful technique Loll* introduced me to and spritzed my inky stencil, flipped it over, and placed it over top of a second piece of Bristol! Leave it for a few seconds, lift, and this is the gorgeous CAS result...
[Sorry to tease you with those PFS jewels again - still out of stock!]
I do hope you've enjoyed stenciling a rainbow of your own - maybe you'll take a second look through your stencils, and play again? You have time!
Thanks again, to the CAS Mix Up team for inviting me to be their guest this month!

Loll’s technique is indeed magical! Very pretty result!
What an artsy, unique and beautiful card Michele. I love how you used the stencil and what a wonderful eye catching technique x. Congratulations on guesting Michele x.
I have been admiring this one on the DT blog and am so pleased you have published a bit early so I can visit and admire it when I am not in a hurry to get round everyone. I am so glad you had the idea for the stencil print as it has turned out brilliantly. Those colours have blended just enough. I love the white on white and the silvery finishing touch. Thank you for being guest designer this month xx
PS love the rainbow sign off too xx
I'll have to try Loll's trick, this is marvelous!
I love your happy oops...what a wonderful way to learn a new technique. This one is simply gorgeous. Those diffused colors are what the rainbow is all about.
Really beautiful Michele using one of my fave techniques. Love it. x
FABulous save Michele, love love your rainbow flower!
Not a thing sour about this, my friend! Awesome is the word! Thanks for sharing your inspiration with us this month!
Ahhh, so that's how you made this so beautiful! I've actually got a few monoprint backgrounds set aside. I think that's what this is, maybe? I'm not super technique oriented. A lot of what I do is by accident, ha! Gorgeous results, Michele!
Brilliant!!! You truly saved the day using Loll's technique, Michele...and what a gorgeous card you created, too! And I love those fabulous pearls and perfect sentiment...way to go! How nice of you to create a card for the reminder post :) xx
LOVE your soft rainbow watercolors for your beautiful monoprint sunflower image, my friend! Who would have thought to use more pastel shades of rainbow colors for your stencil (which I have & Love)..you did of course! So elegant and soothing, Michele. Love your white on white die cut You and glittery jewels. CAS Perfection. It has been wonderful and so inspiring have you as our Guest Designer this month. Love and Hugs..Nancy

You'd never know what started out as an "oops" would turn out such a BEAUTIFUL card Michele...I absolutely LOVE how this turned out! Your rainbow colors are so soft and fit your sunflower just beautifully! Your white die cut sentiment and the few PFS gems were all the finishing this lovely, lovely card needed!! You definitely aced your GD spot this month!! Hugs. :0)
This is gorgeous Michele!
Beautiful! I’ll have to remember this technique.
Oh my goodness! This is just marvelous! I love this stencil, and using the monoprint technique in rainbow colors was such a wonderful idea. I LOVE it, and of course, just ordered that stencil.😂
AMAZING stencil monoprint Michele! You have turned something you were unhappy with, into a beautiful and happy card. Great work! Love the rainbow outline and your gorgeous sunflower stencil. Fabulous sentiment with the large die-cut! Thanks again for being our Guest Designer this month at CAS Mix Up! xx
