After creating the rainbow card with Bibi Cameron ‘s “Intense Liquid Colors” , I just had to come up with another rainbow-inspired idea! This time, I invite you to create this beautiful layout. Let that special and cherished memory take center stage in our creation! Shall we get started? I’m going to show you how to create this layout with watercolors.

For today’s layout, I used:
- Retro Brights 8 Pack
- American Crafts White Textured 12×12 Precision Cardstock Pack
- Vellum Sheets
- Celes Gonzalo – Rainbow Avenue Collection – 12 x 12 Double Sided Paper – Peony Dreams
- Pinkfresh Studio – Garden Bouquet Collection – Puffy Stickers – Alpha
*** Complete Product list – HERE ***

Base of the layout:
- As the main base, I used one of the papers from my collection. It is Rainbow Avenue Collection – 12 x 12 Double Sided Paper – Peony Dreams.
- Add a 12×12 white cardstock sheet. Trim 1/2″ off both sides. Adhere it to the base and add a stitching detail if you’d like.
- The base of the design is a rainbow that I cut with my cutting machine. If you’d like the files, feel free to email me, and I’ll send them to you! 😉
- I worked with the Retro Brights 8 Pack. Using watercolor paper, I cut all the arches and then painted them. I also cut an extra piece of each arch in vellum paper.
- Once the painted arches are dry, I stitched the vellum arches (in the center) with my sewing machine.
- The photo measures 9 1/2″ wide x 4 3/4″ high.
- First, I glued the arches, then attached the photo using 3D foam.


Dcorative details:
- Here is where you can use collections and embellishments you have at home that match the theme of the photo you’re using. I took advantage of a beautiful collection I had saved from Paige Evans. I played with the embellishments and layered many of them. You’ll also notice that, in some cases, I added them in color blocks.
- Another detail I added is white enamel dots. Once everything is in place, I recommend lifting the edges of the vellum pieces slightly to showcase the volume they add and the beautiful effect they create alongside the painted paper.
- Then, you can add your title with a puffy or foam alphabet or phrases. And don’t forget to add the date.



I think it’s a beautiful idea that allows us to play and have fun while creating with watercolors and other materials we already have at home. I absolutely love this watercolor set!
