Stripes, Hearts and Bees? Oh My!
I love a challenge, and this dice roll certainly was if I was going to meet the challenge of all 5!
First, I found some scrap strips of the 2024-2026 In Color DSP. I had strips in these colors: Summer Splash, Shy Shamrock and Peach Pie. And I adhered them to Basic White cardstock to create the background layer for my vertical card.
I also die cut some hearts from the dies in the HEARTS OF ELEGANCE bundle in the same In Colors of cardstock. I needed a "for you" sentiment so I used the SO SINCERE stamp set. And I used BLENDING BRUSHES to create the look of a sponged edge around each of the hearts. To find out how I created the effect of the "lighter toned" embossed pattern, see this video with a different card but the same "sanded embossing folder" technique. The STARSTRUCK embossing folder is a Level 1 Sale-A-Bration item that you can get free with your qualifying product order. Ask me how to get it!
Before I adhered the hearts, I added ribbon to the background layer and added a bow with glue dots for make it look like I tied the bow all the way around. This saved on the amount of ribbon used. Lastly, I added the TINY BEE TRINKETS to embellish my card project. I think I met all parts of the challenge, what do you think?
