Hero Kids Crafty Hour: You Can Never Have Too Many Rainbows

Hi Everyone! It’s another sunny day in QUARANTINE but today I am making rainbows with my granddaughter. I love stretching my products to show multiple uses, so today I am giving you ideas for using the Oval Woodgrain Frames Infinity Dies. They make fun rainbows!

Precut any type of paper (magazines, catalogs, scrapbook paper or cardstock) with the oval dies. Then simply cut them in half. You will have a huge selection of colors for making rainbows. Let your kids select their colors. I put them in piles according to size and let them pick!



Have them glue the strips onto card stock.

Next select either die cut clouds or hearts. Have them stamp a greeting from Hero Greetings Sending Smiles in any color. Adhere with foam tape. Or stamp a greeting at the bottom of a card and glue any decoration on the rainbow. (Foam stickers, buttons, charms, etc...)

The possibilities are endless. And supplies are everywhere. Cut up old folders, tissue boxes, cruise catalogs, books, etc. There is beautiful art everywhere! Enjoy your journey!
