Hip Hip Hooray with Gemma

Posted by Gemma Campbell | May 31, 2023 | Uncategorized

I love a typographic greetings card. Hello Bluebird have lots of fabulous alpha die sets to choose from when creating your own sentiment. I selected the Charlie Large Outline Alpha and the Charlie Alpha die sets to create my birthday greeting. These are the same font, just in different sizes and with the addition of an outline on the larger set. I die cut the letters several times from white card stock and adhered them together to get a stacked look. I also die cut the letters from yellow and orange card stock, for pops of colour.
