A Happy Hello!!!

Swirly Background, www.LaurasStampPad.com

Bright and fun colors are always my favorite and for this card I tried a new color combination – Marina Mist, Wild Wasabi, and Peekaboo Peach!!! I’m really digging it! What about you??

I started with a Wild Wasabi card base and layered on a piece of Marina Mist (4″ x 5-1/4″). Then I took a piece of Whisper White cardstock (3-3/4″ x 5″) and stamped the swirls from the Swirly Bird Stamp Set all over to create a fun background. When creating a background be sure to fall off the edges of your paper so that it looks like the pattern continues on and on rather than stamping just in the middle. I added this piece to the card front! Then for the greeting, I stamped it from the Tin of Cards Stamp Set in Peekaboo Peach onto scrap white cardstock. I punched it out with the Decorative Label Punch. I added a small piece of Peekaboo Peach Ruched Ribbon folded in half to the back of the greeting. I secured it with Stampin’ Dimensionals and placing it onto the card. This is a great way to add a little texture and use those little scraps of ribbon you have left over from another project or the end of the spool. Simple and fabulous! You could mix up the colors for any occasion!!!
