Hello Card with Silver Accents
Hi dear friends!
Did you have a good July 4th holiday? Have a barbeque? Hope you had fun!
Today's card includes one of my favorite things to accent cards - Dazzles by Paper Wishes. Theses stickers come in all shapes and colors. I like the thin line dazzles best because I can use them as an accent like below, edge a card and so on. (Disclaimer: I have not been given any "free" product. I just like using them and have for years and years.)
This is a standard A2 size card made with a deep blue cardstock, then layered with patterned paper (AG).
I made some 1/4 inch and 1/8-inch strips of the blue card and the other strip come from one of AG's border strips (I cut it up.). I glued the strips to the patterned paper starting diagonally. I alternated between the blue card and the patterned strips. I trimmed the overhang. I added some silver Thin Line Dazzles, one on either side of the set of strips. I trimmed this also.
I adhered the piece to my card base.
I chose some other silver Thin Line Dazzles and added them top and bottom of my card, trimming as I went.
I created a silver mirror card square for my sentiment. I used a corner rounder to round the corners on my silver square. I added the HELLO which was cut from some blue mirror card I had. The sentiment was adhered to the silver backing and then this piece was added to my card with foam squares.

You can see me holding my phone to take a picture of my card in the reflection of the silver. The reason I am holding the card is, so my pajamas don't get reflected too. Yikes!
Thanks for stopping by,
