Yay! I am currently away on vacation somewhere in the Mediterranean, but I couldn’t miss out the opportunity to join this hop from Simon and share one more project using their April Card Kit.
Unfortunately I didn’t have the time to make a video so I’m only sharing a simple card today. Feel free to check out the other two projects using this kit that I shared previously:
So here’s my project – I stamped the Lets Party & Celebrate You sentiment using black ink onto a panel of white cardstock which was trimmed to about 4 x 5 1/2 inches. Next I added a fun colorful border using candle image – I stamped it repeatedly using yellow, pink and mint.
I also added a couple of gold metallic stars and used a few Simon Says Stamp gems from my stash:
I mounted the panel onto an A2 top folding card base made out of mint cardstock, added a bit of washi tape and a thin strip of orange cardstock.
