Hi!  Welcome to Handmade Card Happiness!

Today I am sharing a cascading card created using some great stamps and paper from Dare 2B Artzy!

 

I began by layering the Paper Cut’s Cascading Card Base with Dare 2B Artzy’s Pomegranate and Midnight Blue Doodles Paper.  They made the perfect background for a summer Happy Fourth of July card!  Using the Paper Cut Cascading Card Layering Die Set made this so easy as most of the measuring calculations are already completed for you! I stamped the sentiments, banner, and star stamps using Midnight Blue and Pomegranate ink.  The banner and word star are from an earlier Dare 2B Artzy set called My Hero.  The sentiments are from the Patriotic Owl stamp set.  The remaining stars were cut out with a star paper punch.

A white square of card stock trimmed with the top strip from the patterned paper creates a place to write a message to the recipient…maybe even an invitation to a holiday barbeque!
I hope you have a wonderful summer!  Don’t forget to enter Dare 2B Artzy’s June Challenge which is “SUMMER” for your chance to win a stamp set and ink pad of your choice!
