Hello, stampers.
I have two simple cards… cards that take my back to my childhood. I was obsessed with rainbows as a kid. Especially rainbow stickers. Ha.
So today I decided to make two rainbow-y cards for the fun of it. Well, honestly, I was just dying to use THIS heart border die from Memory Box. I lovey it.
I cut this from white Neenah cardstock. This die cuts the outline (which I colored black) and the inside hearts (which I colored with my Copics). After coloring, I pieced it back together like a puzzle. So cool. Would have looked better with some Glossy Accents on the black, but I was in a hurry…
Another fast one up next. I die cut the border from watercolor paper. (The only reason I used watercolor paper was because it was what was sitting in front of face. Ha.) Before I took apart all the pieces, I scribbled over it with my Copics, blending quickly from color to color. I then took out the center and just adhered the outline border to a white card. And those cute colored pearls? Doodlebug.
Here is a closer look at that die. Lovely, eh? Such intricate cutting. Oh, and here is another must-have border die that makes the cutest little hearts…
Great dies.
And the stamps are from two sets that I am enjoying lately. One is the new Simply Said set from Paper Smooches. I like their greetings because they just seem to fit so well on cards. The other is THIS sunshine set from Ali Edwards and Technique Tuesday. Great messages on there.
You can find the complete supply lists below in the thumbnails.
Happy Thursday.
