Hello friends and Stamping Sisters!
The 4 of us participated in our first Stamping Sisters Mini Card Camp in June of 2020. This was the brainchild of my good friend Kelly and when she asked three of us to join her at camp, we all jumped and said yes. I volunteered at the end of camp last summer to organize another round and that is this week. Wait--we had a June camp in Florida and now a winter 2021 camp in Wisconsin? We sure are messed up. But, here we are again! Coincidently, three years ago, all 4 of us were at my house for a "real" stamp Camp-in-Oga weekend! We still are heading to camp, though for 2020 and now in 2021, this is a virtual one and everyone is invited to attend. Please join us--it sure will be fun!
Your completed front is now done and you can trim with a paper trimmer to the card front size you want to use.
I then die cut the word Heart three times from white cardstock and layered them on top of each other, using liquid glue. I like the dimension the three layers give to word dies--especially the large ones.
It is now your turn. Pick a color theme--use one or two colors--or maybe use all of the colors of the rainbow--ROYGBIV! Cut the cardstock in various widths or use a strip die. Find a large word die and a coordinating strip sentiment. Create your striped background with strips, add your word die with the coordinating sentiment and your card is done. So Now, go and have some fun!

Wahoo! I got to do your challenge today. I loved your samples so much Barb, that I had to make one of my own. I've never done a large word die with a line sentiment added to it. This was a great challenge.
