Washi Tape Rainbow Craft Instructions:
1. Make folded card
Begin by folding your light blue cardstock in half to make a card. If you don’t want to make your washi tape rainbow into a card, simply cut your blue cardstock in half.
2. Add each color of washi tape to create a rainbow
Grab your red washi tape. Cut off a section about 3/4 length of the card and then place it down next to the left side of your card. Don’t worry if some hangs off the top at this point. Then continue cutting and adding each color of your washi tape to create a rainbow.
3. Cut off any washi tape excess
Use your scissors to cut off any extra washi tape hanging off the top of your rainbow card.
4. Glue cloud at the bottom of rainbow, draw a smiley face on it
Cut out a cloud from your white cardstock. Glue it at the bottom of your washi tape rainbow. Then use a marker to draw a cute smiley face on your cloud.
5. Write a message inside the card
Open up your rainbow washi tape craft and write a happy message on the inside of the card like “You color my world!” or “You make gray skies blue.”
Your rainbow washi tape craft is complete!
