Altenew 9th Anniversary Blog Hop Day 2 + Giveaway (over $2,200 in Tota

I'm hopping along with Altnew today to celebrate their 9th Anniversary. You can find the hop here and be sure to join in as there are tonnes of prizes on offer including a gift certificate from our store! You should have come to me from Jennifer Colacicco and you'll be heading to Svitlana Shayevich after me.

For my project I thought I'd make a fun hello card using the new Wave Panel Die which is super-fun to paper piece! I die cut it 3 times - once from grey card, once from pale aqua and once from white glitter - all backed with double-sided adhesive as that makes it really easy to stick the bits back in neatly. Once the frame was in place on my card I added all the "foam" using the glitter card, then I went for an ombre effect getting darker going down the card so used the card as cut for the top then shaded each of the remaining "levels" using Sea Shore Markers. I found it easiest to colour each piece whilst still in the blue frame and then I used a gem picker tool to pop each one out and into the grey frame. To create my sentiment I used a mini alphabet stamp and laid each letter down to create a wave in the words.
