Hello Friend, Happy Birthday

I have another new card today.   This one is Card #2 of my CraftMad card swap.

 

Card #2 is an embossed card with layers.

 

It took a little while to settle on a design, but once inspiration hit, the card came together fairly quickly.

 

I rumaged through my Snippets container, and made a selection of rainbow colour strips of cardstock.  I ran them through the Cuttlebug using the 'hello' embossing folder.

  

The strips were then placed in rainbow order, trimmed to suit the placement of the sentiment and then mounted to cardfront with foam tape.

 

Honey Bee 'Bitty Buzzwords' stamps & dies were used.  

 

 

I diecut 'hello' & 'friend' in alternating black & white cardstock (black for the shadow, white for the text). 

Sentiment was also mounted with foam tape, and placed at the bottom of the cardfront.

  

'Happy Birthday' was stamped on the inside with Versafine Claire Onyx black.

 

 

Quite a fun cheerful card.
