Happy Valentine's Day

 

F4A624 Unusual or Different Design

For me, doing a smaller than A2 is very different for me. I actually have these cards bases that I have been collecting for over a year because I just can't seem to make smaller than A2. This challenge pushed me to use them.

I needed a few more Valentine's Day cards and recently purchased this die cut from Simon Says Stamps. I sponged ombre' red to pink on the top card then cut it and glued it to an embossed card base. I finished it with some punched hearts.

The second card I cut several different shades of pinks and used it for both the second and 3rd card. On the second card I added some sponging around the edge and on the 3rd I left it white.

For all 3 cards I heat embossed the sentiments on black card stock and pupped them up in dimensionals.

Happy Valentine's Day

Many Thanks


 WT882 - Bargello or Herringbone Technique

I really wanted to try the Bargello technique and have been sorting through my paper scraps. This technique is perfect for scrappy cards.

I cut the strips, glued to a card stock, cut them again and then glued to another card stock layer. I then die cut the layers, stamped the sentiment and added this cute pup from my friend Polly (peeps321 - thank you Polly).

This is for my monthly pet donation.

Many Thanks

Thinking of You

 

MMTPT706 - use a card making technique that you love to do…Share what brings you joy.

Recently I have found a lot of joy clearing out a bunch of scrap papers. It is a great feeling to use up smaller scraps to help clear out my smaller bits.

For this background I cut a bunch of my green designer papers with a diamond die cut then glued them to a cardstock layer. I then die cut that layer with a decorative border and layered on the card.

I finished the card with a die cut flower, popped the sentiment up on dimensionals and added a couple of gems to the flower.

I Couldn't Love You More...

 

CAS675 - Hearts

For my card base I stamped the chocolate chip background with versamark and heat embossed the chocolate chips.

Next, I stamped the sentiment and die cut the layers. I finished with the large heat embossed chocolate kiss and a heart banner.

I Couldn't Love You More...

Happy Valentine's Day

 

FS782 - Kathy aka Carolinakathy is this weeks very talented Featured Stamper. I found this amazing INSPIRATION

I loved the long strip across the front of the card. I used a long strip across the front of the card and added embossing to it rather than glitter. I then embossed the bottom of the card, stamped the sentiment over the strip and used two punched hearts from my stash.

I finished with a little sponged flower and added Nuvo Drops.

Happy Valentine's Day

Feel Better Soon

 



IC843 - Natural Life - here is my INSPIRATION

My sweet nephew is still recovering from 9 stress fractures and today's inspiration reminded me of this cute bear and is perfect for a card to send to my nephew.

I stamped the image, colored with copics then cut the panels. The base panel is stamped with the cute heartbeat stamp several times and then I punched a couple of additional hearts.
