Designed and created by my eldest Arty Crafty Kid, this charming Printable Rainbow ‘I Love your True Colours’ Card is perfect for any special occasion – Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, Birthday’s and everything in between.
The rainbow can be coloured, painted and embellished with buttons, sequins or even glitter (if you’re feeling brave!).
And with a handy template to download, this craft couldn’t be easier!
The Backstory
Rainbows are a huge source of inspiration within my household, so I wasn’t surprised that her card idea was Rainbow themed. However, I was unprepared for why she wanted to create this card for her Daddy’s Birthday:
” My Daddy is like a Rainbow. He’s happy, funny, very silly and sometimes can be cross, and I love everything about him. He’s just like the song from Trolls [ True Colours] and he’s never scared to be himself”
Heartwarming stuff right?
