Happy clouds

 

I absolutely love the new saleabration stamp set 'see ya later.' It's incredibly versatile and always looks great on card layouts. 
 
The base of this card is coastal cabana card stock.  On top of this I've laid a piece of star fruit card stock. On top of the summer star fruit is a piece of whisper white with a cloud cut out using one of the word bubble framelit dies. I've used a piece of window sheeting that I've stuck on the back of the white card stock and behind it is a piece of dsp from the 'high tide' dsp set. I've also stuck some gold sequins from the gold sequin trim on top of the dsp.  I've stamped some 'rain' in coastal cabana ink on the bottom right hand side of the cloud using the dots from the 'happy watercolour' set.  I've stamped the sentiment from the 'see ya later' set in stayz on black ink. I've used the '&' from 'hello, lovely' and stamped that in coastal cabana just overlapping the sentiment on the left hand side. Also overlapping the sentiment I've stamped lines in summer star fruit from the 'gorgeous grunge' set.
 
For the final embellishing touches I've used a strip of gold fancy foil designer vellum, a gold mini metallic clothespin and a small piece of gold sequin trim. I hope it brightens your day!

So happy

 
 
The colours in this card make me so happy!
 
The base of this layout is from the watercolour wonder dsp. I then cut a piece of calypso coral card stock measuring 1 x 5.5 inches and spritzed it with some white spray.  I placed this on top of a piece of gold fancy foil designer vellum measuring 2x5 inches. On top of this is a piece of whisper white card stock that I have cut using the Deco labels collection die. On this piece of card I stamped the happy watercolour paint splash in calypso coal and then the sentiment in stayz on black ink in the centre of the paint splash and the flower I stamped twice on the right hand side just hanging over the page. Using my blender pens I coloured the flower with crushed curry with a darker colour in the middle working to a lighter for the outer petals. 
 
I finished the layout off with a small yellow bow using some summer star fruit twine and adding some gold sequins from the gold sequin trim which is a very cheap way of embellishing your cards!
