One of my good friends Amy was looking for a rainbow colored FTU kit, so I thought I'd give one a try! Then I was trying to think of a theme for it, and my crazy mind thought, "Hey, maybe I should do a different theme for each color"..and my even crazier friend Amy co-signed on the idea..so here you go! 7 different colors with 7 different themes. All in one kit :)
Have fun with it, and can't wait to see what you come up with!!!
