A birthday card & bookmark for my aunt (the bookmark is strickly color challenge). She broke a magnetic bookmark that she had, so I offered to make her a new one. She didn't really have a favorite subject or color. She said she liked all colors, so the rainbow idea was born. I cut the rainbow from the Pretty Princess Cricut cartridge at 2 3/4" dial size in the colors of CC385, Real Red (PTI Pure Poppy), Wonder Wisteria & Island Indigo (thanks Julia!!). I used the CAS180 sketch based on darsie1's card. The bookmark is a scrapling left over from cutting a card down to 4 1/4" square. I lined the inside with a repurposed magnet.
