My Time to craft - hearts

 


This was a quick card to make. I started with a plaid cardbase. I stamped the arms with a Stampendous stamp set, and added a die cut glittered heart to the hands. The sentiment is from Impression obsessions.  I made this for the My Time to Craft challenge this week. You can find the details here:

Just Us Girls #759


My latest stencil from A colorful Life just came in the mail today, and wanted to make a stenciled Valentine for this week's Just Us Girls' challenge.You can find the details here:


I used pink, red, and mahogany distressed oxide inks for the blending on the stenciling. I used the red and pink on my first stenciling, then I slightly moved the stencil off from the original placement to achieve this look and adding the mahogany ink. Then with the red ink I stamped the target for the center, with mahogany ink I stamped the cupid that I fussy cut and added with foam dimensionals. For the sentiment I used versafine clair black ink. This was quick and easy and I really loved the look. I mounted this on a dark red cardstock base. I added a few Valentine stickers just as extra embellishments. The cupid is a Stampabilities stamp, the target is a Craft Smart, and the sentiment is from Unity stamps.
