Sending Big Hugs

 Happy Monday Peeps,

It's July 1 and time for the Championships/Wimbledon tennis tournament, which means that  I'll be in front of the TV for a lot of the next two weeks. Luckily, I can make cards and/or do some sewing while watching. It's all about multitasking, LOL. 

I made a card last evening using the current Color Throwdown challenge, which ends in just a few hours. This is the first time using this die set from Concord & 9th. It took a few tries to get things lined up correctly. I ended up running the plate through the die cutting machine with the embossing rubber mat to get the lines to glue the pieces down, which worked pretty well. The background polkadots are made using a C&9th stencil and black ink. All of the card stock is C&9th too.

The stamps and all of the dies are part of the same set. Hello was cut three times and glued together. I added some Nuvo shimmer over it and then glossy accents, but it's hard to see in the photo. The other part of the sentiment is heat embossed with white EP.

Here is the inside of the card. Very simple, and the sentiment is also from the same set.

Enjoy your day and have a great week ahead!
