Hello – Falling Hearts Postage Stencils

Hello, fellow crafters and cardmakers!! I hope your week is going well!! Brenda here with a colorful “hello” card to share with you today!! I love the combination of rainbow colors with black and white!! It makes my heart happy!!

I began by die-cutting the Postage Party Die from white cardstock and stenciling the Postage: Falling Hearts Stencil onto it with a rainbow assortment of inks. I used Lipstick Red, Coralline, Lemon Drop, Bright Fern, Cobalt Breeze and Violet Fringe. I used the same colors on all three layers, starting with a light application on the first stencil, using a medium amount of pressure with the second layer and adding the color full strength on the last stencil.

The Postage Panel Die was cut from white cardstock and the same ink colors were blended on it in rainbow order. It was adhered to the stenciled panel using liquid glue. A panel of black cardstock was die-cut with the largest die in the Striped Edge Nested Die Set and the panels were adhered to it, also using liquid glue.

The sentiment is from the Fancy Script Stamp Set. I LOVE the script font of these sentiments!! The “Hello” stamp was white heat embossed onto black cardstock and cut out with the Coordinating Die. I also die-cut three more layers from heavyweight white cardstock and adhered them behind the embossed one for dimension. After adhering the sentiment with liquid glue, I added a sprinkling of Glossy Black Opaque Gems and this card was finished.
