“Any Occasion” cards are my favorite to have on hand because, well, you never know what might pop up that you’ll need to celebrate with a handmade work of art. For this project I specified a promotion but if you custom print your own sentiments on card stock, you can say whatever you want!
Unfortunately, the sentiment die set I use in the video is no longer available, (as far as I can tell). I didn’t realize it until I started to complete the supply list after filming. However, the one I linked to below is a good replacement. Keep in mind though, any die with or without a shadow would work. No shadow? Simple, just pop your white sentiment onto a black rectangle, oval, or circle. It’s contrast that you’re trying for. 😃
Also, this card is bigger (4½” x 6″) than a standard A2 (4¼”x 5½”) so you’ll need a slightly bigger envelope if you wish to recreate this design. (Supply list is below.)

Remember, if mailing a card with layers and embellishments in the United States, be sure and buy “non-machinable” postage so your cards don’t get smooshed in the USPS postal machines.
