Here is my project:
I've been sending out so many "hugs" in the mail lately! These dies
are the perfect way to do that.
First I gathered my papers and the Sending Hugs Kisses Die Set:
I die cut the "Sending" and "Hugs" twice out of the same yellow card stock that I
was planning to use for my base. I adhered them together so there was a double
layer on the words...just giving them a bit more sturdiness. I used a scalloped
rectange die to cut my flower pattern paper.
I cut my pieces and rounded the corners on the yellow card base and the
blue layering paper.
You'll find that these word dies are the perfect size for an A2 card!
I adhered my blue layering paper and my patterned paper to the card base. Then
I adhered the words using a liquid glue.
I wanted a bit of shimmer so I used a yellow shimmer pen on the words after they
were adhered to the card. I've tried to capture it here:
So hard to capture shimmer in a photo! As a final embellishment, I added some
flower sequins, tiny leaf embellishments and a tiny bluebird!
I hope you enjoyed today's project using the Sending Hugs Kisses die set #1304
from Elizabeth Craft Designs.
Please join us in this Quietfire Summer Blog Hop and give yourself a
chance to win!!!
Thank you so much for stopping by today!

That's a fabulous card! I wouldn't have dreamt of using that lovely flowered paper but it really works :)
I never quite know what to do with a strong patterned paper. This looks so cheerful and the small embellishment touches on the word pieces are a perfect touch!
A beautiful card and sentiment!
Wow, I just love the pattern paper and the font of the dies. So elegant and pretty.
Those die cuts look great on that paper. Good idea to add the shimmer.
great looking card--i like the contrast in color!
AWWWWWWWWWW I love this card! Gorgeous patterned paper! And that darling little blue bird! Just so precious!
I love the beautiful sentiment - such pretty calligraphy. The flowered patterned paper makes the perfect background.
What a great way to use up a busy pattern paper. I have a few that I will use up with this technique.
Love the one with the floral background! Reminds me a of a beautiful summer garden!
Sunshine.
This pretty card is sure to bring a smile.
I really like the colours of your card. The print is lovely.
Sending Hugs - a perfect saying for the current times and just the right size! I like the sentiment on the wood paper. I know tht wasn't a card, but could be. The card with the flowered paper and the leaves adhered to the top of the paper is such a cheery card. I believe any recent would love to receive this card. It will certainly bring a smile to th recipient's face!
I love the bright floral DP with the vibrant yellow die cut letters. Super card!
Such a cheery card - perfect to send to a friend whose been a bit down.
I love, love, love the background paper. And the bright yellow die cut sentiment. Pure happiness. A perfect card for these difficult times.
Love these bright cheery colors. I too have been sending out hugs to folk, always makes someone’s day knowing someone thought of them.
Love this. Love the colors and the arrangement.
So pretty and a great way to send hugs during this time.
