A Happy Hello

Hi All! Just thought I'd share a little New Year "Hello" with you today. I had thought about using this for my Rose Blossom Blog Hop project but decided to go with the mini instead.

This card uses Close To My Heart's January Stamp Of The Month: This Moment.


Let's take a look:


The base of this card is made from a piece of Colonial White Cardstock cut at 4x10 inches and scored at 4 and 8 inches. I layered the front panels with Sorbet Cardstock and Hopscotch paper. The circle closure (it looks like a giant button to me) is the bull's eye stamp from This Moment, stamped on Flaxen Cardstock using Flaxen Exclusive Ink. I cut around the circle and popped up the bottom half using dimensional adhesive so that the top flap of the card could tuck under the circle. The "Hello" sentiment, also from This Moment, is stamped on Colonial White Cardstock in Indian Corn Blue Exclusive Ink, free-hand cut into an arrow and popped up on the bull's eye with dimensional adhesive. Finally, I added some clear epoxy bubbles from the Black & Grey Epoxy Bubbles assortment for some extra bling.

Here are a couple of close-ups:



And here, again, is the card with it's envelope:


Hope you enjoyed a little Happy Hello from the new Stamp of the Month--it's not just for Valentines you know....
