Hi there.
I'm not going to lie... I'm a little disappointed with this card.
It looked better in my head!!
It was also a little fiddly to put together.
I die cut the cityscape in white card, putting the main piece aside
and instead using the top part (the piece that usually goes in the bin!).
This piece was then stuck to white card, that acted as a base layer.
Then, I cut the houses out in separate rainbow colours, fitted them into the white piece,
and glued them to the base.
I'm sure I'm making it sound much more complicated than it is.
It's very simple really !!

Congrats ladies - your challenge is always an inspiration to me.
Really lovely to see how well Mandi is doing too. xxx

Hi Caroline . . . and welcome to the Snippets Playground. Unfortunately, there's a lack of glue and cardstock available as one little imp has hidden it from the rest of us!
Anyhoo . . . onto your card . . . masterfully done I reckon!
See you on the roundabout later.

Caroline, this is a fabulous snippets card! You are too hard on yourself! I love your rainbow city! I did a similar card a couple of weeks ago with cutting the die in sections and so I know how fussy this was. It looks like a winner to me!! Hugs, Darnell
