Polka Dots Banner Hello and Hi

Polka Dots Banner Hello and Hi
As we are allowed to have activities in the office, there are chances that I will meet lots of people that I met vitually before. Thus, I need to stock up my 'Hello' and Hi' cards. I like to make this postcard-style cards as usually I will ask the person to choose the design they want or like. This also save me on envelope and writing the person name on it which take some time. I like to give them the card instantly when I saw them.

Freshly Made Sketches #533 - A Sketch by Jen B
For these cards, I am applying Freshly Made Sketches #533 - A Sketch by Jen B horizontally and vertically. This sketch also good for using those scraps.

Polka Dots Banner Hello
Again, for standardization and making these postcard-style cards like a series, two (2) lace border rectangles are die-cut from blue and red cardstock and the second layer is two (2) white cross-stitched rectangles.

Polka Dots Banner Hi

Some blue and pink polka dots pattern scraps are die cut with the dot fishtail banner diecut. Then they are trimmed to fit the white cross-stitched panel and the die cut sentiment.

Close-up: Shimmering 'hello' word in blue
The word 'hello' and 'hi' are die-cut from white, blue, and red cardstock. The white die-cut will be stacked-up twice and finished off with the blue and red die-cut. This is following Jennifer McGuire's style of creating dimension which is also good in using up those scraps. The white cross-stitched panel is attached to the lace border base according to the sentiment diecut color.

The card is finished by adding some glitter onto the word 'hello' and 'hi' to make them sparkle and shine. A red gem is added to the 'i' in the 'hi' sentiment to make it unique.
