Colorful Options May 2023 Challenge

I got this die set two weeks ago and have been itching to use it. I LOVE shadow boxes. I used blue as the base color since that's the focus of this month's Colorful Options challenge, but, of course, I needed a rainbow of gumballs!

Colorful Options is a monthly challenge based each month around a single color or a rainbow of colors. It is seemingly simple, but for me the challenge is always about how to let that color really sing and play the starring role in the card.

This month, the color is blue, but as always you can choose to use a rainbow of colors instead.
