Love You

I made a Valentine shaker card in February and saved the letters out of the frame I die cut to make today's springtime card for our Just Us Girls #770 Word Week: You. We are asking you to use any sentiment that includes "you" such as Miss you, Happy Birthday to you, You are the best, Thinking of you, For you, Thank you, and so forth. I'm hostessing this week and am looking forward to seeing all of the cards in the gallery with this theme. 








Products I used:

Honey Bee Stamps - Hearts in Bloom layering stencil set, Love cover plate

Reverse Confetti - You "tag" set

Concord and 9th - mini ink pads

Ranger - Distress Oxide ink pads

Vellum

Pretty Pink Posh - jewels

I stenciled an A2 white panel, then used the Love cover plate to die cut the words. I die cut three plain white Love panels and stacked each letter with three white and the stenciled letter on top. I temporarily taped a white panel to my card front to adhere the stacked letters to the card front. I removed the white panel once all letter stacks were adhered in place.

I die cut a pink "you" and traced the same die onto vellum. Fussy cutting "you" was quick since it is a  short word! I adhered the vellum "you " behind the pink one, then adhered them to the card front. Three little jewels added a little sparkle around  my sentiment and the card was done!

Please join us this week for an easy challenge. I think everyone has a sentiment with "you" in it or a set of alphabet dies. Can't wait to check out what you create!
