Hello everyone, How you are all well. Today I have a set of cards inspired by Laura Bassen. She has lately been making some really cool, trendy, graphic colourful cards. My eyes just opens wide and jaw drops every time I see one on her IG and her videos. I could not resist to make a few for my own. So I went through some of my dies from Simon Says Stamp and pulled out Slopes and Hills dies. This is an older die from Simon but a staple in a die collection. Then I selected a combination of coloured cardstock scraps to die cut using the dies. After about fifteen minutes of die cutting, I went to town making these four cards.
I am back with bright colours because graphic looking cards need that pop of colour(s). I made couple of rectangle ones and couple of circle ones. I die cut the circles and rectangles using Simon’s Nested Circles dies and Basic Rectangles dies and adhered the coloured Slopes and Hills die cuts over them, trimming off the excess that is hanging over.
I adhered them over a white panel using foam adhesives and the white panel over a white card base using foam adhesives. The sentiments are from Reverse Sentiment Panels Miss You. I trimmed them and adhered using foam adhesives. A few Moonshine sequins scattered to finish off the cards. Here are the photos of individual cards. Enjoy!

Thank you Laura. Your work is always an inspiration to me. I tried to use your inspiration to make it different and my own. I feel I have done that and pretty proud of myself too. Hope you all like them.
Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog today. Have a wonderful day! Until next time….
