For my two cards today I extracted the sentiment out of Aunt Gail's store-bought card and I was able to make these two cards. Can you see where the cards were one and became two?
I started with a lavender card base and then layered patterned paper by Basic Grey that was 1/8" smaller around the edges. The rhinestones and enamel stickers are from my stash.
The sentiment is from a store-bought card and I cut it out with a die from Kaisercrafts. So instead of throwing away the yellow cardstock, it came from...tada!
Look, it's the yellow cardstock from above. Isn't that cool? Why haven't I done this before? Anyway, I added polka dot patterned paper by Studio G behind the yellow cardstock.
I stamped the large sentiment with Hero Arts ink and it never evenly dispersed into the cardstock. I stamped it multiple times with the MISTI. I decided to color in the bare spots with my Stampin' Up watercolor pencils to fill in the bare spots.
The fun arrow and banner combo come from the Scrapbook Expo.
Thanks for looking. HAGD
