Smile!

Good afternoon Teatimers,

DT Lyndsey here and today I'm on the blog sharing this happy mail card using the one of the new release stamps You've got Mail.

I absolutely love these happy snails and you can make such cute scenes with the added accessories!

 

So for my card I wanted to create a little scene and thought the papers from the Brighter Days 6x6 Pad would be perfect for this.

To start I coloured the images using my Spectrum Noir markers (colours listed below in order of lightest to darkest)

Snail - BG1, BG3, BG5, BG6 

Shell - CR7, CR9,  CR11,  DR4

Mail Box - IG1, IG3, IG5, IG7 

Post - EB1, EB2, GB8, GB9

Ladybug - IG5,  IG7, IG9,  CR9, CR11, DR4

I took a 6x6 card and trimmed to 12cm wide, I then trimed a piece of the tulip paper from the pad to 10cm x 12cm. Using the Slimline Salloped Nesting Dies to cut the largest from red card I then cut this down to add a red scalloped boreder to the top and bottom before adhering to the card blank.

The scene was created on a scalloped circle and added to the centre of the card.

I finished off with the die cut 'smile layered 4 times for dimension and then added the you've got mail sentiment in the bottom RH corner. I mean who would smile when they were receiving happy mail 😁

Thank you for joining me here on the blog today, I hope you've enjoyed my happy card.
