Rainbows are having more than a moment, the trend seems to be here to stay and we are certainly not complaining! We are all heart-eyes for rainbows, enjoying them on our clothes & in our hair, on our toast & cookies, and more! It makes sense that we are excited to see rainbow in our cardmaking too! And we've got lots of fun rainbow products and rainbow ideas at Ellen Hutson LLC to get you started on your merry rainbow way!

#3. Die Cut
Die cuts are also a great way to add rainbows! Use ROYGBIV colors of cardstock with any dies to build your own rainbow like this beautiful card by Heather...
Or use a rainbow die cut! For this card, I used the Paper Smooches Rainbow die and cut it from Solar White cardstock. I used Distress Inks to add my rainbow colors and then nestled the rainbow inside the O of LOVE. Many bold letters or shapes would work well so get creative! A rainbow coming out of a heart or star? Gorgeous!
