How many "hello" dies does one card maker need? I say, you can't have too many! For my project today, I'm utilizing a few of my favorite "hello" dies for a clean and simple, colorful card. Pop Tone card stock, on sale this month, adds the perfect "pop" of color.
I started off by running a large "hello" die through my Sizzix machine using Cougar White Super Smooth Cardstock--I like the 100lb. Then, I took the letters and ran them through again in a dotted embossing folder.
You want to choose an embossing folder that has a pattern that's close together like dots or stripes so it shows well on the letters.
I adhered my large "hello" with small foam squares to the front of the card along with a "hey" and "hi". These were cut using Grape Jelly and Blue Raspberry Pop Tone Cardstock. A sentiment tucked in the corner of the die cuts finished the card.

Cute card - so many interesting layers. Love the dots on the white hello and the partial stencil coloring is the perfect background!
