I thought that this quite large word die does not need much more to make a card work. So I left the rest pretty simple to make that sentiment pop. I used Distress Oxide inks to get these vibrant colors.
To spice up my first card I used a stitched background die by MFT. I think it adds just the right amount of "a little something". To finish the card up, I added this little dots that I die cut from my leftover paper and added a little hello sentiment as well.

For the second card I used a stencil by Tim Holtz. I did the background with Distress Inks, because Distress Oxides were to bold for what I had in mind. Thankfully the colors mach perfectly.
