Summer Loving Hello Greeting Cards
Happy Thursday Crafters! Today, I’d like to share with you these three colorful Summery cards that I’ve created with one of the trios from the new WOW! Summer Loving Set as two trios were brought together to help you to add the most stunning effects to your projects by giving them a different result each time yay! I’ll be sharing the other set in the next blog post as, I want you to see the cool effect from the second trio from the set. With that being said, please keep on reading the blog post ↓
To create these cards, I started by heat embossing each of the colors from the WOW! Summer Loving Set in plain white card panels. (By the way, I’d like to mention that these 3 color are from the WOW! Ferry Man Trio) So…back to the card panels, once each of the card panels were heat embossed, I trimmed the edges of each of them slightly smaller than an A2 size and I started to make the cards. For the first card I trimmed in a diagonal way with the help of the paper trimmer the blue and green card panels as you can see in the picture above. Once both card panel were cut, I adhered the backing of them to an A2 size top folding white card base with double-sided tape. As for the sentiment, I kept it simple by running through the die-cutting machine the Hello Die Set to die-cut its shadow layer out of vellum and its top layer out of white card stock. Lastly, I layered both hello die-cutting pieces, and I adhered the backing of it to the card. To finish the card off, I stamped with Versafine Onyx Black one of the sentiments from the Hello Friend Stamp Set which right after, I trimmed and adhered it underneath of the hello with foam mounting tape as you can see in the picture above.
For the second card, I also cut the pieces in diagonal way however, this time I cut them a little bit smaller as you can see in the picture above. In order to mix all three colors, I adhered the backing of the green and blue on the sides, and the pink pieces in the top and bottom all with double-sided tape directly to the A2 size top folding white card base. As for the sentiments instead of die-cut the top layer of the hello, I decided to gold heat embossed it by stamping the Hello Friend Stamp Set with WOW! Embossing Ink Pad and by applying Metallic Gold Rich Embossing Powder. Right after, I applied the embossing powder, I heat set it with the WOW! Heat Embossing Gun Tool until the powder was completely melted. Lastly, to finish the card off, I adhered the backing of the Hello die-cutting right in the center of the card panel and I called the card done. Pretty simple, isn’t it?
To create the last card, I decided to use all the skinny strips that I had trimmed from the edges of the previous card panels. So…to create this card panel I carefully adhered the strips in a white card panel with liquid glue. As you can see, I only had enough to cover half of the card panel so, once I reached out the half of the card panel, I wrapped around a few times a piece of Metallic Embroidered Thread which, I finished with a tied bow. Right after when I was done tidying the bow, I adhered the backing of the card panel to an A2 size top folding white card base with foam mounting tape. As for the sentiment, I kept it clean and simple by running through the die-cutting machine the same hello dies to die-cut both layers out of white card stock. Once, the die-cuttings were done I layered them up, and I adhered the backing of it in the top side of the card. To finish the card off, I decided to adhere a little gold jewels right in the center of the bow.
