You’re My Best Friend
Hi readers! Happy Sunday to you! I’m pleased to have another card for you featuring the always inspiring Laurie Schmidlin, using some fabulous Paper Smooches stamps & dies!
Enjoy!
To create my card I started by layering on some patterned diagonal striped patterned paper. For the background, I stamped four of the sentiments from the Bosom Buddy set onto a coordinating piece of patterned paper (I chose one with a very subtle pattern so that the stamped sentiments would still be seen). For the focal image, I die cut the Big Friend die twice and then adhered them together so that the bottom layer was peeking out from under the top layer. I adhered the friend word to some vellum and then attached it to my card. For embellishment, I tied a simple bow and added some enamel dots.

Great card. I just ordered my first Paper Smooched stamp set yesterday. Can’t wait to get it and use it!!

Love the graphic design and the sparkle on the die is simply fabulous!!!!
Love how the sparkly word is offset … makes it look as though there’s a layer of frost around it … like a popsicle! Fabulous! Anita :)

Love those hand written die cut words! Die cutting on a press is sooooo much easier with the glitter cardstock!

I love how the patterned papers aren’t layered in the “traditional way”….how the striped paper is taller and skinnier than the text paper. So cute!
