This is the fastest card I ever made...under 5 minutes. An idea popped into my head just before I had to leave for work. Tomorrow is trash pick up day, and the trash can still has room for more if my idea did not work. I sponged rainbow colors through the rays stencil, and sponged some extra after removing the stencil to blend the lines. Sponged the clouds, and I was done. The thing that took the most time was cleaning the stencil. This is a one layer card for the TLC challenge. I count all the hostesses for the challenges...past and present...as rainbows. For the CAS challenge I have a thunder storm, and I splattered water on it. TFL, Francie

Favourited -and WOW!! What a wonderful creative use of the rays stencil, Francie. I absolutely love this, the way the bright rainbow colours just spring out of the storm clouds. So glad this popped up just before I shut the PC down for the night. And yay both of us - you had time before work, and I managed to get enough housework done before work to allow a little stamping time in the afternoon.

This is definitely the birth of a spectacular rainbow after a very threatening thunderstorm. 5 minute card - WOW - would take me the whole day to produce plus clean up time too. he he

Francie, when I saw the thumbnail pic of your card, I thought that can't be someone's art piece; it has to be a picture from a magazine or other print. I was wrong! It is MARVELOUS, and I'm amazed that you created it in such a short time!! WOW!!
