Hello, happy FriYAY and HOORAY for NEW RELEASE DAY!
We are so excited for this new release! Let's recap real quick before I get to my project that I have to share with you today...
STAMPS




CONFETTI CUTS







. . . . .
Starting out with a photo of my son and hubs from a somewhat recent baseball tournament (my mask is around my neck and I'm holding onto theirs with my other hand). My son plays competitive baseball and his team colors are red, white and blue, which was the basis for my Valentine's card for him.

I don't think it's any secret that creating for any male can be a little bit of a challenge. It was simple to start with this red, white and blue color scheme and build the card from there.

The base of this card was cut from Premier Polar White cardstock and then layered with a Navy Blue cardstock panel. From there, I layered SQUARE & CIRCLE PANEL and (the small circle from) CIRCLE RAY DUO cuts from Premier Polar White.

The "main image," from bottom to top is Salsa, Premier Polar White and Navy Blue cuts of the outline from the new LAYERED XOXO Confetti Cuts. The top layer is cut from Salsa and Premier Polar White cardstock. Each was cut in half and then lined up together. I added the sentiment from the new WORDS OF LOVE stamp set (stamped in Salsa ink).
The details that I added after all that was put together include the Salsa cardstock heart, strips cut from the edges of the new OUTLINED FRAME Cover Panel Confetti Cuts and enamel dots that match the Salsa cardstock.

Hooray! My goodies are on the way, and I’m beyond inspired by all the goodness on the blog this week. It was great to see Amy Rohl’s cards again!
First, I LOVE seeing your faces. My extended family never wears masks, and are as healthy as can be. I have been up close and personal with thousands upon thousands of people (at rallies, etc.), and am just fine. But I know that you have had health problems in the past so you want to be careful. It is just so good to see your beautiful, happy faces!!!!! And I LOVE the patriotic colors. What a great idea to branch out and use these very meaningful colors. I adore your idea!!!!
Love this, the pic and that fabulous masculine design.
