Bonjour !
J’espère que vous avez passé un bon weekend ! Je ne sais pas pour vous, mais j’en ai ras le bol de ce temps gris et pluvieux, j’ai envie de couleurs !
J’ai eu la chance, récemment, de gagner des encres de chez Catherine Pooler, j’adore les couleurs qu’elle propose et elles sont très agréables à travailler, j’en ai donc profité pour faire une carte “arc-en-ciel” !
Hello !
I hope you had a great weekend ! I don’t know about you, but I’m fed up with this grey and rainy weather, I want colours !
Recently, I was fortunate to win some Catherine Pooler’s inks, I love the colours she offers and they are very pleasant to work with, so I made a “rainbow” card !
Sur mon tapis de travail j’ai mis les encres rouge, jaune, bleu et violet avec le tampon encreur et avec un pinceau et de l’eau j’ai tracé des bandes de couleurs sur un papier mix media en prenant soin qu’elles se chevauchent pour créer les couleurs intermédiaires.
On my working mat I put some red, yellow, blue and purple inks with the ink pads and with a brush and water I traced strips of colours on a mix media paper taking care that they overlap to make the intermediate colours.
Une fois sec, j’ai coupé des chevrons avec une matrice de découpe et je les ai collés sur la carte les uns en dessous des autres.
Once dry, I die cut chevrons and I pasted them on the card one below the other.
Pour finir j’ai tamponné le sentiment en noir et j’ai collé quelques sequins dans les mêmes couleurs.
To finish I stamped the sentiment in black and I glued some sequins in the same colours.
Et voilà ! Un peu de couleurs ça fait du bien !
And voilà ! A bit of colours to feel good !
Merci pour votre visite et n’hésitez pas à me laisser un commentaire, je suis toujours ravie de vous lire. Passez une bonne journée ! ☀

Your rainbow zigzags so beautifully vibrate with color! Looking at them I have the impression that they are living creatures that move on the card.
A great design, Isabelle!!
