Now, on to my project! YAY!
I wanted to create a card filled with colour and vibrancy, so I reached for my Heffy Doodle Banana Split cardstock and used the new Pinstripe stencil to add some Mustard Seed Distress Ink to the background to create a tone on tone look. I ADORE this striped look. It really makes me think of scrapbook paper, I was always a ‘B’ side girl with the subtle designs!
Next I took some white cardstock and cut out the star shape using my Stitched Stars dies. I love that this set has a large star die, perfect for creating star shaped cards! I then reached for my Sprinkled With Fun stencil and used a small blending tool to ink some candy style sprinkles on my card. I thought this actually started to look like a cookie, so I layered another kraft coloured star underneath, slightly offset so I could go with this theme!
For the sentiment, I used some pink craft foam, but first I stuck the foam to some cardstock before diecutting with the Celebrate Heffy Cuts die. I find that this helps prevent the foam from stretching. For the ‘YOU’ sentiment I used the new Rascal Alphabetters stamps and dies. OH, I LOVE that these have coordinating dies! You should really check them out! So fun and whimsical!
Thanks for stopping here and for hopping along. For your comment, why not tell me your favourite item from the new release! Mine is the Absotoothly Awesome Card Kit – such excellent value for money, and I love that you can choose to have it with dies or without dies! <3
Big hugs,
Lesley

Great release and what a fab blog hop – the cards are simply amazing, I was truly blown away! My favourite product, just after the card kit, is the fab sparkle stencil, but I also think that the fairy stamp set is cool – very unique, I have not seen anything like it on the market!
Your card is so fun and festive! Love the pinstripe pattern. Thanks for sharing your creativity.
Sweet and fun, thank you for sharing!
Your card is completely different from everything I’ve seen. Very creative and refreshing, and simply amazing!
What a fun, bright and happy card you created with this star die cut.
I love the fairies in that set too! Your bright yellow card is fantastic!
