Love and Chocolate

Hello Newton Fans!

It is that time of the year when love and chocolate are on everybody's mind.

Speaking of Love & Chocolate, I combining this stamp set with the

Charming Hearts Frame Die to produce this fun card.

I started off by choosing my cardstock colors.

Carnation Pink, Bubble Gum Pink, and White Card Stock.

I die cut out each color using the Charming Hearts Frame Die.

Next came the fun part, I mixed and matched all the pieces

until I produced three card fronts.

I will use one card front for this card and I have two more for cards later!

Once I was happy with all my pieces, I glued everything onto a

separate pieces of cardstock and put them aside to dry.

While I was waiting for the glue to set up,

I stamped out all the chocolates that I wanted to use from Love & Chocolate.

Coloring the chocolates was so much fun!

I always think of See’s candy when I color this stamp set.

All my pieces are ready to go, it is time to assemble the card.

I took Charming Hearts Frame Die card front and placed this front

on a card base that I created using the matching bubble gum pink card stock.

I decided on my placement, and then I added my chocolates to the front of my card with foam tape.

I stamped my sentiment on to the the larger die- cut piece on the top.

With the sentiment done, I was ready to 

add my matching clay heart embelishments.

Sending lots of LOVE!

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!
