You Make My Heart Happy

Happy Monday friends!  I have a clean and simple Valentine card to share today.


This cute bunny is from the LTTS Doodles Etsy shop and is just one of three digi stamps in the Bunny Love stamp set.  I sponged some Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Ink on my card front and then added a topper I diecut from paper in my stash.  I added a bow that I diecut from red cardstock using an older bow die from My Favorite Things.  I stamped the bunny on Neenah cardstock, colored it with copics, and fussy cut it.  I used a black glaze pen on the bunny eyes and I used a Wink of Stella Clear Glitter Pen to add some sparkle to the heart.  I stamped a sentiment and adhered the bunny with foam tape.

Copics:

Bunny - E53, E51, E50; R20; E01, E00, E000; E43, E42, E41

Heart - R29, R27, R24

XOXO

Happy Sunday friends!  I hope you're having a fabulous weekend!  Today I'm sharing a card I made featuring some of the newest products from Lawn Fawn.


The theme for the challenge is "Lots Of Heart" and there's still plenty of time to play along so be sure to check it out!  I used the Lawn Fawn Stitched Rectangle Frame Lawn Cuts to cut a piece of cardstock for the front of my card.  I sponged the rectangle with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink and adhered it to my A2 card base.  I used the Giant XOXO Lawn Cut and cut the letters from both black cardstock and bristol card.  I sponged the bristol letters with distress oxide inks, adhered them to the black diecut letters, and then adhered the letters to my card.  I stamped images from the Scent With Love Add-On stamp set and colored them with copics.  I used Nuvo Crystal Glaze on the balloon, strawberry, and heart on the cupcake, and then adhered all the images with foam tape.

Copics:
Skunk - C7, C5, C3, C1, C0,R20
Balloon - R39, R37, R35
Strawberry - R39, R37, R35; YG17, YG03, YG01;E29, E27, E25

Sending A Flurry Of Love

Good morning friends!  Today I'm sharing a card I made for the My Favorite Things Slimline Challenge

The challenge this month is to create a slimline card with a MFT stamp or dies that features the word "love".  My slimline card measures 3.5" x 8".  I cut a piece of bristol and sponged it with Spun Sugar and Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide Inks.  I spattered it with white and dark pink watercolor paints and once dry I adhered diecut snowflakes on my card.

I colored the sweet girl from the Warmest Wishes stamp set with copics and diecut her using the coordinating die.  I used a black glaze pen on her eye and a white gel pen on her pom-poms and boot cuffs.  I stamped a sentiment from that same stamp set and heat-embossed it with white embossing powder.  I used the Heartfelt Love Die-namics to cut the large Love word from both pink and black cardstocks.  I glued the two layers of cardstock together and adhered it to my card.  I adhered the heat-embossed sentiment and the girl with foam tape for some added dimension.



Copics:

Skin - E13, E11, E21, E00, E000, R20

Hair - E37, E99, E97, YR21

Blue - BG09, BG05, BG02, BG01

I Love You Beary, Beary Much

Good evening friends!  I'm sharing a card I made for the MFT Wednesday Sketch Challenge 575.


These little bears are from the This Hug's For You Stamp set.  I couldn't find the stamp in the shop so they must be out of stock but I'm sure they'll be restocked soon!  I colored the image with copics and then fussy cut it.  I used some pretty plaid pattern papers from my stash to cover the card base.  I diecut a stitched rectangle, sponged it with Pistachio Distress Oxide Ink, and attached it to my card.  I stamped the sentiments and adhered them to my card.  I adhered the image with foam tape and added a few tiny diecut hearts.  I used a black glaze pen on the bears' noses and added Nuvo Crystal Glaze to the hearts.

Whale You Be Mine?

Good morning friends!  Today I'm sharing a clean and simple Valentine card using stamps by Paperie Ink.


The whale and sentiment are from the Whale stamp set.  There are four different whales and lots of sentiments that can be used for different occasions.  I sponged and stenciled pink ink in the center of my stitched rectangle panel.  I stamped the whale on Neenah cardstock, colored it with copics, and then fussy-cut it.  I heat-embossed one of the sentiments from the stamp set and adhered both the whale and sentiment with foam tape.  I added a few tiny diecut hearts to finish my card.
