I am so excited to be part of Simon Says Stamp Love you More and Hey Bestie collection blog hop. Today is day #2. Hey everyone, I am Gayatri and hope you are having a great weekend.
Simon released Love You More collection last month. Being December and festive season, Simon did not get a chance to showcase the gorgeous products from the collection. Hey Bestie collection release on Thursday. Products from both collection work with each other. Hence Simon has decided to combine both the collection to bring you this blog hop. Yesterday was day #1 and today is the second day. I have two projects to share with you. Due to all the holidays, I am yet to receive the Hey Bestie collection. Hence I am sharing with you projects using Love You More collection.
Both my projects uses the new Rainbow Heart die and the Sentiment Strips Cheeky Love panels. These sentiment strips are awesome. Now they come in black background. It saves time white heat embossing sentiment on black cardstock. I love any time saving goodies. Anyway, here is my first project.



For the background, I used the new Heart to Heart background stamp, stamped using Fog ink on white cardstock panel. They using the Rainbow Heart die, I die cut the centre of the panel. I also die cut another white panel with Rainbow Heart die, coloured the rainbows using copic markers. I used the negative panel as guide and glued the Rainbow die cut on the centre of the Fog card base. Then I adhered the negative panel stamped with the background on the card front using foam adhesives for dimension. Love the rainbow on the heart adding pop of colour to the neutral background. The sentiment is from Sentiment Strips Cheeky Love panel. I trimmed one of the sentiment and adhered on top of the Rainbow Heart using foam adhesive. A few Moonshine Sequins filled with white glossy drops to finish off the card.

Here is my second project.

For the second card, I used an entire Sentiment panel from Cheeky Love sentiment panel as my card front. I trimmed the panel white edges and adhered using foam adhesive on white card base. For the focal point, I die cut the Rainbow Heart die using white cardstock, coloured the rainbow using copic markers and assembled the heart back using a guide panel behind. Then adhered the coloured heart on the centre of the sentiment panel using foam adhesives. I then trimmed the sentiment I <3 U sentiment from another sentiment panel and adhered on the top left of the heart using foam. A few moonshine sequins finishes of the card.
