Hello Happy Mail

by - April 09, 2017

Hello everyone,
today I wasn't really creative. I made a few backgrounds, but didn't have any fancy ideas for cards using them. But at least I managed to pull off two cards.

For the first card I put the Tim Holtz Stencil "Splash" onto a piece of cardstock and fixed it with some tape. Then I colored it with My Favorite Things "Lemon Drop". To give it a bit more depth I added a little bit of My Favorith Things "Orange Fizz". Then I cut it with my paper trimmer and glued it onto my card base.
For my sentiment I used the "Hello Dies" by Pink and Main and colored the inner part of the sentiment with some My Favorite Things "Lemon Drop" to match the background. For that little bit of extra shine I added a bit of "Clear" Wink of Stella and put some Nuvo Glitter Drops on my background.

For the second card I stamped the flower from the "Thank You So Much" set by Studio Katia several times with Versamark onto my background and embossed it with white embossing powder. Afterwards I colored the whole background with watercolors. Then I die cut my sentiment with the Pink and Main "Hello Dies" set and to match it with my background I colored it in the same colors as the flowers and put a layer of Glossy Accents over it.
To finish off my card I sprayed the background with Tsukineko Sheer Shimmer Spritz, put everything together and added a few dots of Ranger Perfect Pearls.

During the whole time Floriano sat in his box and napped. But to his defense it was pretty late already ;)
