Hey Girl - Hero Arts
Posted by Kelly Rasmussen on August 01, 2018

Hey Girl

The Text Me stamp set is full of fun sayings that are perfect for cards to friends when you just want to say hello. And rather than just include one message on the card, I decided to showcase eight different sayings that all work great together.

I started out with a panel of white cardstock and stamped the "hey girl" message in black ink where I wanted it to be. Then stamped some of the smaller sentiments above and below in a rainbow of colors. The colors of ink I used from top to bottom are: Crimson, Rose Madder, Tangerine, Green Apple, Intense Black, Aegean, Aquatic and Orchid.

Next, I trimmed a diagonal line on the top and bottom of the white panel and then adhered it to a strip of black cardstock that was the same width.

The background was stamp with the Blanket Pattern Bold Prints using Aegean ink on a Pool Folded Card. I added a strip of Mandarin Layering Paper to the right side of the card base and then adhered the stamped panel with foam adhesive. I finished off the card with some black enamel dots made with Ranger Enamel Accents.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Love this beautiful card so much, Kelly! Fresh colors, modern lines and an eye-catching design!

paperpicnic,

Great card Kelly but until I read the description, I thought it was a bookmark. Sorry, I think it was because I just reading in a boek that has teal and terracotta in the cover. Love your card and I like the strip of white and black also for a bookmark LOL.

Henriëtte,

Love this card! Wish I could get my sentiments as straight as yours!

Margaret,
