This retro-inspired card is full of bold color, playful shapes, and a shiny sentiment that makes you say, "Hi!" I was inspired by Craft Roulette Episode 270, which called for an A7 card, ‘80s colors, an exclamation, and arches. I also followed the June 2025 Show Us Your SheetLoad sketch for the layout.

I started by cutting a 4" x 6" panel using the A7 Modern Embossed Layers Die Set and foiled it with the Time Warp Letterpress Die using rainbow foil for a seriously cool background. After mounting it to an A7 card base, I followed the SheetLoad sketch to layer in bold black cardstock accents. The star of the card is the adorable cell phone made with the Cell Phone Mini Slimline Die Set, complete with a stamped sentiment from Smart Phone Sayings and a die-cut “Hi!” from the Modern Embossed Alphabet Die Set. I added a pop of rainbow using the Rainbow Funshine Die Set (now retired, but the Rainbow Shaker Die Set is a great alternative!) and backed the phone with vellum for a soft contrast. A sprinkle of Rainbow Glitter Enamel Dots finished it off with sparkle—just the right mix of modern, nostalgic, and fun!
