Rainbows & Cheerful Wings

Rainbows & Cheerful Wings

This playful card features products from the Cheerful Chirps collection by Spellbinders — and it’s full of color and personality! 🐦🌈 I used my Copic markers to blend rainbow gradients across the birds’ bodies, giving them each a unique, vibrant look. They’re perched on simple branches with sweet white flowers, all set against a clean white background that lets the colors shine. A popped-up panel and a few sparkly embellishments add just the right touch of dimension and shimmer. This card is sunshine, color, and a whole lot of happy all in one!

I stamped it multiple times in different colors, slightly offset each time, to create a colorful, confetti-style design. Finished with shimmery gems and a punny sentiment, this card is perfect for a joyful celebration!
