Hooray, Yippee!

I have a happy card for you today that features some simple colouring and those 

lovely large alpha dies from MFT as the focal point....

I'm a sucker for an alphabet whether it be stamps or dies, but these 

good sized Impact Alphabet dies from MFT are a great size for 

cardmaking and will also be useful in sewing projects too 😉

One way I like to use them is to replace part of a sentiment and add 

images to decorate and accent the word. These rather excitable, 

happy peeps from Waffleflowers Yippee set were just the thing.

I started by cutting a few of each letter in thin, cheap cardstock and then 

used better quality grey card for the top layer. I arranged the letters in a 

wavy curve layout and added the boys and girls which I have 

coloured with Copics and cut out with the matching dies.

I made a rough cut mask out of copy paper where the letters would lay and then 

used a stencil to add stripes in similar colours to the Copics I'd used. 

All I had to do then was adhere all the letters and images....

I used a Hooray stamp from an Avery Elle set because it fitted the space 

better then added some glittery stars to match the shimmery alpha dies...

 not picked up by the camera 😞 

  

 

Thanks for stopping by :)
