Glitter & Lights-You are Amazing

This card sings broadway 🎭🎶 lights to me with the black and white dot Bold Border Background Block and glitter Tall Tales HELLO ✨ I stamped the polka dot background with Oreo Ink and created the shadowed letters using the Hello Drop Shadow Stencil, black blender brush and Oreo Ink.

I die cut the Tall Tales Alphas to spell HELLO in rainbow cardstock colors. To finish the card design, I added the Wavy Stitch Stacklet design to the edge of the panel. The Wavy Stitch Stacklets are going to be on heavy rotation. They add so much interest to clean simple cards. Love, Love, Love ❤️❤️❤️.

BIG HUGS! Congratulations Card

The Tall Tales Alpha dies are amazing to create big and bold sentiment card fronts. I die cut BIG HUGS using an assortment of cardstock colors (this is a fabulous way to use up your scraps 😉) plus a second layer in Sugar Cube to stack together for extra dimension.

To position the Letters on the Wavy Stitch Stacklet background panel, I used a Cardmaker’s Ruler and Washi Tape to keep things somewhat straight and together. I aranged the bottom of each letter against the top of the ruler and placed a piece of Washi tape over the letters with a little extra tape on either side to function as “handles”. This temporarily secured my letters in place so I could turn the letters upside down, add adhesive and then flipped them back over and adhere them perfectly in place. Once adhered, I carefully removed the washi tape from the letters. I used this method to spell out both BIG and HUGS.

To finish the card, I added hearts in Candy Corn and Lemon Meringue from the Hang On Hearts die set and a You Did It Mini Strips Grad black and white heat embossed sentiment.

So there we are friends, two Big & Bold Sentiment cards using the Alpha Bits Cardmaking Kit and Wavy Stitched Stacklets. I hope you enjoyed my post today. Be sure to stop by the Taylored Expressions Blog to see more inspiration from the Creative Team. Thanks for stopping by and Big Paper Hugs!
