You Make Me Smile

Welcome back to the February Paper Funday Challenge! We’re so excited to have you join us this month. Our amazing sponsors for this challenge are Not Too Shabby and Scrappy Tails, and as always, the theme is Anything Goes, with a fun twist: a color challenge featuring Burgundy, Pink, and Sage Green.

For my card, I decided to embrace the twist and used the beautiful Altenew Beauty Within Bundle, which includes the stamp set, coordinating stencil, and dies.


I stamped the images onto white cardstock using my Stampwheel and then I used the layering stencils to color the florals with Altenew Fresh Dye Inks in Red Sunset and the leaves with Frosted Foliage. Then, I cut everything out using the coordinating dies.


I took an A2 panel and splattered gold metallic ink across it for a touch of shimmer. Then, I arranged the images on the panel and used Glad Press n Seal to pick them up. This hold your design in tact which I learned from Jaycee Gaspar in one of his classes. I flipped it over and applied liquid adhesive to the leaves and attached them to the panel. I then popped up the floral images with foam tape for dimension.

The sentiment was stamped in black ink, and I finished the card by adding a few clear sequins for a touch of sparkle.
