Rainbow Day

This layout was made for the 2025 iNSD challenges on the Page Evans facebook page. The photos show my granddaughter at her Baby Sensory group back in January, and the theme of the week was rainbows. She wore her little rainbow dress, and there wer many rainbow activities to take part in.

For the page I used a sheet of Paige's patterend paper from an older collection, with a pale denim effect printed over it.

I worked the rainbows and clouds in six strands of DMC embroidery cotton.

The title was added with Doodlebug Designs, Alphabet Soup puffy letter stickers.
