STAMPlorations Quick Card Fronts Hey Hello A2 Card Fronts by STAMPgirl Nancy (me)😀
I have been having so much fun altering Shery's fun and colorful A2 Quick Card Fronts.
There are 4 color combos on the 16 A2 card fronts. I used 2 of the color combos for my cards.
The card fronts are printed on 120#...Really thick and versatile!
My 1st card using a beautiful color combo from the New Paper Goods,
Quick Card Fronts Heh Hello A2 Card Fronts!
First I outlined some of the sentiments with 05 art pen.
I loved how the green was very close to the Distress ink, Speckled Egg, which gave me the idea to die cut one of the CUTplorations For the Birds Dies out of SU Lost Lagoon cardstock. I stacked the birds using Connect Glue and weighted down with a large acrylic block until dry.
Next inked the stacked birds with Versa Magic and heat embossed with Speckled Egg Distress Embossing Glaze, which made the birds a darker green. I heat embossed the birds twice. Then attached birds with Connect Glue and weight down with acrylic block.
Next attached the birds to the SU Very Vanilla 100# card base and Done! Loved the results and the color combo for this A2 Heh Hello Card Front!
Here is a close up of the heat embossed birds.

My 2nd card using the entire Hello You A2 card front. The bottom portion of this card front design is the same Hey Awesome as my 3rd card.
First I outlined the Hello You with 05 art pen. Next used CUTplorations Perched Bird Die to die cut the bird from the card front. Then die cut 2 more birds from black cardstock and used Connect Glue to stack the 3 birds and inlaid the birds using scotch tape on the back to secure.
Next traced around the bird with black art pen. This is called a Camouflage Technique, which is a cool effect. Then added a black cardstock layer for a contrasting frame. Attached A2 card front to SU Very Vanilla 100# card base and Done! I loved the results and so Quick.

My 3rd "Heh Hello" Quick A2 Card Front cut in half.
I cut the A2 card in half and then outlined the Hey Awesome with an 05 Art pen. Stamped the tiny flowers from STAMPlorations Life is Sweeter designed by Dee. Die cut the SU Real Red cardstock with Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Dies and attached the image. Then used the same die to cut an A2 SU Very Vanilla 100# CS and popped up red layer with craft foam.
Attached layers to SU Very Vanilla 100# card base and Done!
Fun Quick A2 Card and I still have the other half for a future card:-)
Enjoy and Happy Crafting, dear friends. Love and Hugs..

ReplyDeleteNancy, all three cards are wonderful, using Shery’s card fronts! Outlining the letters with your black pen is really effective! I especially love the first one with stacked birds. The color combo is so cool and the shine of the embossing glaze is so pretty! The hidden bird design is fabulous too! The added tiny flowers to the HEY is fun and cute! Thank you so much for your inspiration, my friend!
