"It's all about the LOVE, baby" Theme Stampers Showcase Blog Hop...

 


Hi and welcome to the Stampers Showcase Blog Hop for January where it is "all about the LOVE, baby"!  Yes that's right, it is getting close to that time of year where cupid's arrow is about to strike.

I wanted to create a card today that could be used for Valentines or just a nice card to send to a friend or family member and I love the greeting on this card "Happy Heart Day".

Arrange a Wreath

I started with a piece of Basic White cardstock and sponged the background using the new blending brushes in Petal Pink, Flirty Flamingo and Melon Mambo to give an ombre effect.  I then used one of the little heart stamps from the Arrange a Wreath stamp set and using Versamark ink, randomly stamped the hearts on to the sponged background before heat setting with clear embossing powder.  The hearts are really subtle but catch the light beautifully.

I then splattered the background with some water and a little bit of Frost White Shimmer Paint.  The black edge and the white heart were both cut using the Stitched Be Mine dies.  I arranged all the pieces together, adding some linen thread, adhesive jewels, heart charm and a few resin hearts.

I cut a further Basic White background which I embossed using the Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder.  The greeting is also taken from the Arrange a Wreath stamp set.

I hope you like my card today.  I am now going to pass you on to the lovely Stacey who I know will have something amazing to share with you today.

Happy Stampin'
