Love and Kisses

 

Hello and Welcome

Happy New Year

The first card of the year, something super fun!

For this project I used  

Valentine Postage Sampler

Basic Frames Die Set

A quick and effortless way to make a card is to use a stamp for the background.

For this card I used the cherry stamp from Valentine Postage Sampler.

I stamped the image onto white cardstock in a very random pattern.

The next thing I did was take my Copic E40 brick white marker

and trace around each stamped image.



This little bit of highlighting will add some definition.

I use the large, stitched rectangle from the Basic Frames Die Set to cut out my card front.




I attached this front to a card front to a Kraft-colored cardstock card base.

I also stamped out three additional extra cherries which are colored and die cut out.

Using circle dies from my stash, I used a 2 ½ circle that I cut using red cardstock.

Also an inner 2-inch circle of white cardstock.

I layered these two pieces together and attached this piece to the center for the card front.

My cherries are attached to the top of the circle with foam tape.



Using a strip of the same red card stock, I created a banner

using the “love & kisses” that is included in the stamp set.

To complete this card I added some black gems to my card front

and sparkles to my cherries using a glitter pen.

Thanks for stopping by

Hope you have an awesome New Year

 

Stay crafty my friends!
