Hello, crafty friends! Welcome to the May blog hop with Spellbinders. I’m so excited to give you more ideas on how to use this month’s Glimmer kit!
If you haven’t seen the May Glimmer Kit yet, make sure you also check out my previous post HERE. You can also catch my full kit unboxing video below.
Rainbow Bubbles
I love these fun open circles on this month’s kit. Not only are they fabulous for adding polka dots to your projects, but I decided to foil them with some clear foil and then color them in to look like bubbles!
I can’t take the credit for how I colored these bubbles. I watched an amazing tutorial by my friend Mona and it was so inspiring if you want to learn to color rainbow bubbles. I will link HERE if you want to watch her tutorial!
I didn’t bother to color all the bubbles in. I wanted a more random pattern to make it look like they were floating, so I just colored select bubbles. You can still see the uncolored bubbles when you tip the card in the light.
I added a fun sentiment by glimmering several strips of cardstock, and then I used those same colors of cardstock to add some stripes on the background of my card.
To finish my card, I added some clear sequins here and there to make it look like even more tiny little bubbles floating around. In the end, I think this turned out to be a really fun and festive card!
Thanks for stopping by! Please follow the list of names to continue on today’s hop!
