Hello! I’m so glad you’ve stopped by the blog today. I’ve made a card using the Maxwell Layer A, along with the Calligraphy Pop Congrats.
This card is so much fun to make, and so simple! I die cut three layers of the Maxwell out of a slightly metallic silver cardstock so that the frame would have some extra dimension against the colored squares.
In addition to cutting out of silver, I also cut one each of a krafty green, yellow, beige, and a couple shades of blues. These colors were cut so that I could inlay each square with a color square that fit perfectly.

The Congrats was cut out of a copper metallic cardstock, and the shadow was out of the gray.

So many different color combinations could be used. Light pastels with a bright silver could even work for congrats on the baby! Fun to make – I hope you enjoyed!
Have a great day, and I’ll see you again soon!
