Hello! I am featuring several products from my stash:

I am also featuring the LF Hello die which is new to my stash.
I created a background for my panel by stamping the library return card using a blue pigment ink and heat embossing this with clear powder. I masked off some of the edges to overlap the library return card. This was not to hard too do since the edges are straight. All I had to is cover the edge with a Post-It Note. Using the same masking paper, I inked each library card using various Tim Holtz Distress Inks.
For the main focus of the card, I stamped the panda on Neenah Solar White cardstock using Versafine Onyx Black ink. After this has dried, I die cut the panda using the matching die.
I stamped the book from the LF Check This Out stamp set on Neenah Solar White cardstock using Hero Arts Navy Shadow ink. I fussy cut the book leaving a little white border around it. I cut off the book pages to lessen its height. After I've adjusted this to the desired height, I taped this on the inside of the book.
To build the scene, I die cut a square using the patterned paper and the stitched die. From the same paper pad, I die cut the grassy hills. I used both positive and negative cuts to create layers. I die cut a black cardstock to create a frame using the die from the LF #awesome die set. I could have skipped using the stitched square die since the stitching detail got covered by the frame but I did not have plans of adding a frame to the lay out while I was creating this card.
For the sentiment, I die cut a red pearl cardstock and a red patterned paper from the patterned paper pad using the LF Hello die. I used the patterned hello die cut as a shadow for the solid hello die cut.
I stamped the sentiment awesome on a black cardstock using Versamark ink. I heat embossed this with white embossing powder. I made this into a label using a label die from LF Flippin' Awesome die set.
The panel was too busy for the framed focal point. I placed a vellum overlay over the panel to mute it down. To adhere the vellum, I squirted a small amount of glue to the back of the vellum where the focal point will be adhered. This will be covered so I am not too worried of the liquid glue. I set this aside to dry. After which, I stitched over the lines of the library return card with a transparent thread to secure the vellum and also, for some added interest.
I adhered the focal point with foam adhesive. I adhered the hello die cut sentiment and tucked in the label sentiment underneath it.
I added Ranger White Enamel dots to the eyes of the panda. I adhered a red clay heart to the book.
Thank you for visiting my blog. Have a blessed, brilliant and creative day!
