Let’s spread some joy! Let’s make some Happy Cards and share them! Let’s put a smile on someone’s face 🙂 Here’s one of my Happy Cards…

The cardstock panel to which I had taped the Off the Loom Stencil, and the die-cut Happy layers were blended with Lime Rickey, Tiara, and Party Dress inks. Then I used an embossing pen with a ruler to create a few lines across the panel to which I heat-embossed WOW Metallic Brass Embossing Powder. I also used the pen to create an outline around the bottom Happy die-cut layer and heat-embossed the same powder.
I glued the Happy layers together and then used foam tape to mount it to my top panel. A few sequins were added from the Des Moines, Phoenix and Springfield Sequin mixes. I applied Lime Rickey to the edges of the bottom layer and glued that to the folded card base and then glued the blended panel on top. (Supply list is at the bottom of this post).
