Hello people! Actually, rainbow hello would be more appropriate! I have a Paper Smooches card to share today using one of the new Hello Word dies. This set comes with 5 different dies, and I love each one of them! [I apologize in advance for the wonky pics! I had a heck of time taking clear photos of this card. I think I'll try again in the daytime.] I had so much fun putting this card together and I love how it turned out!
I been wanting to try this technique for a while, and this die was just what I needed. All I did was cut the word in each color of the rainbow twice (you need good, thick cardstock for this to really work).
Then it was just a matter of stacking and gluing them together. The result is a beautiful 3D rainbow about 1/4" thick. So much fun!
That's it for me today! I hope you go check out all the new Paper Smooches goodies this month!
And just for fun to start off the new year, I have a giveaway today:) Just leave a comment below for a chance to win a goodie bag that includes a PS stamp set and a PS word die (and some other tidbits:). Get your comment in by Wednesday, midnight EST and I'll post a winner on Thursday:)
