I made this card for the ABC double letter challenge: LS. "L" for lots of layers and "S" for salutation or sentiment.
This was a fun technique...a friend showed me how to do it yesterday. It was such fun that I made 2 cards.
The hardest part was choosing which papers to use. For this card I chose 4 bright patterned papers. It's best to choose small patterns for your papers.
Base layer: blue 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"
Layer 2: yellow 3 3/4" x 5 1/2"
Layer 3: pink 3 1/4" x 5 1/2"
Layer 4: multi color dots 2 3/4" x 5 1/2"
Use removable tape to attach layers 2, 3, and 4 together. Centering each layer on top of the next layer, starting with the largest layer on the bottom. Put your die sentiment in the center and cut through all 3 layers.
Carefully remove the "hello" die from the center, keeping all 3 layers together. Then, cut the 3 layers apart in the middle (horizontally at 1 7/8"). You will now have 2 pieces of each colored layer.
Take your base layer and attach (glue) layers #2 at top and bottom of base layer, next attach layers #3 (top & bottom) and then layers #4 (top & bottom).
In the center of your completed panel, use 3D pop dots to attach one of your "hello" die cuts. I also added a ribbon to my finished panel. Then, I glued my finished panel onto my card.
I'm sure my description is as clear as mud! But, I did try!

This card looks like it was so much fun to create, Judy! These bright colors are so pretty. I'm a see-it person, so I have a hard time just reading a description. Looks Great~

Oh.My.Goodness.Gracie! What fun is this! This delightful card reminds me of being in a house of mirrors the way you did this sentiment. Thank you for detailing how you did this too. The colors are terrific and so is the fancy ribbon you used too! ~Karen.
