Just Because You’re Awesome

Hey everyone. Dana here with you today. I’m wrapping up my cards from the August 2019 release with a stunningly beautiful card. I have to say out of all the cards I made this month, this is my favorite.

For the card I used the ever so popular Summer Splash 6×6 paper pad and the Just Because Sentiment stamps. This paper pad has been one of the most colorful I have in my stash. I have grabbed it so many times for my summer inspired card.

To create my card I used the paper pad along with the Scalloped Rectangle dies. First I die cut out the smaller piece from a piece of ombre paper from the pad. I then cut down a piece that had the stripes of color and glued it to the bottom of the ombre piece. I love how this worked out. Next I stamped the sentiment onto this panel and add the hello die cut in black on top. (I stacked the hello with several layers to give it some weight.)

To add more color to the card, I die cut out a larger scallop from a piece of pink paper and placed it behind the ombre layer. That really made the card pop with color. I adhere all the layers to a white card base.

And of course I needed just a few gems on the card. I used coordinating glossy dot from the Birthday Boy and Birthday Girl collections. I didn’t have a green matching glossy dot so I used the silver glossy dots and colored it with a Copic marker. Thanks for stopping by today. I hope you enjoyed your visit. See you back here soon.
