I’m sure many of you in the UK and even around the world will have heard about the amazing and inspirational Captain Tom Moore, who has raised so much money for the NHS in the lead up to his 100th birthday!
Well in addition to donating, I thought I would also make him a birthday card (details for where to send him a birthday card are here).
And since the rainbow has become the symbol of the UK in lockdown and is a show of support for the NHS then I had to go with a bit of gold at the end of the rainbow:
Paper: Lawn Fawn – Let’s Polka (r)
Stamps: Concord & 9th – Brighter Days, Concord & 9th – Rainbow Turnabout, Flora & Fauna – Everyday Word Party
Dies: Concord & 9th – Brighter Days, PTI – By the Numbers, Neat & Tangled – Skinny Strips
This card was also my first outing for the Concord & 9th Rainbow turnabout stamp set. I used pastel tones for the background – stamped in this order:
- Lawn Fawn – Ballet Slippers
- Lawn Fawn – Celery Stick
- Lawn Fawn – Butter
- Lawn Fawn – Minty Fresh
The cloud and droplet details were Altenew Limestone and Sea Glass.
And the big rainbow is Lawn Fawn Bubblegum, Altenew Warm Sunshine, Lawn Fawn Fresh Cut Grass, and Lawn Fawn Merman.
There wasn’t much space left for a sentiment once I’d added the rainbow elements and 100 in glittery gold paper. But Skinny Strips and Flora and Fauna Everyday Sentiments stamps to the rescue. 😀
Happy birthday Capt. Moore!
