Welcome everyone! So happy it’s Friday and we can almost taste the weekend. It’s going to be fabulous. But first, I have a pair of cards I created with dies from Spellbinders and Concord & 9th plus a bundle of paper scraps I had sitting around.
I took the paper scraps and glued them to a piece of paper, the used the Concord & 9th Marked Messages dies to cut the hello shadow from the strip collage I had made. My piece was big enough that I actually got two shadows from it. BONUS! I cut the word from black cardstock and used liquid glue to adhere it in place.
Then I used the Spellbinders Four Petal dies to cut a white background shape. That was a little plain and I thought it would be fun to emulate the dots in the scraps I used so I ran the white panel through my die cut machine with the Spellbinders Tiny Dot embossing folder.
I cut a teal background for my card front and splattered it with metallic watercolor before adhering it with liquid glue to a card front. Then I popped the white panel up with foam tape, followed by the hello panel the same way. For finishing touches I wrapped black jute twine around the top and tied it in a bow.
I like making cards like these to have on hand because you can turn them into lots of occasions depending on the message you write, or they’re easy to add a sentiment strip to later on that says something more specific too.
