Love of my Heart...

I decided to make my hubby a card and this is the result.

I made a red peony using my McGill punches and Bazzill Smoothie Red paper. I love making these flowers! They are so fun and easy to do! Sooo many color combos and different types of papers to make each flower different!

I used my JustRite Nested Wedding Sentiment Stamp for the sentiment and my Stamping Scrapping Spellbinder Matching stamps called Holidays  for the border around the sentiment. I used my Grand Caiber and my Spellbinder Labels 14 for the 3 cut out diecut shapes. The bottom Spellbinder label 14 shape is Prism mirrored cardstock and the bottom 2 shapes are embossed with Spellbinders Floral and Stone Impressibilities Embossing Die

Hi everyone!!

I decided to play and try a new technique I saw...and this is the result of it.

I used a stamp and embossed it with clear embossing powder. Next I used my copic which was black 110

and colored right on top of where I embossed. I then used a piece of an old washcloth and some colorless blender from a refill I have and I rubbed in circles so the color went off the embossed areas to around the embossing. I did it a few times until I was happy with how it looked. Next I took my little memento ink pad in pink and patted around the paper all over then used another piece of the old washcloth WITHOUT colorless blender and rubbed the ink around. this is the result! 

To make the card I took 3 coordinating ribbons in 3 sizes and layed them on each other biggest to smallest. I added a sentiment from Stamping Scrappings Frou Frou Tags Stamp set onto the smallest Spellbinders label 14. I added some embellishments like Prima flowers Hope you all like it! ;) Let me know if you try this technique!! I am entering this card into the following challenges: Spoon Full of Sugar - Tues - texture Oldie but a goodie - Tues - AnniversaryPapertaking Weekly - Tues - anything goesCraft your passion - Mon - anything goesCrazy Challenge - Mon - flowers Kaboodle Doodles - Mon - girlyKaren's Doodles - Mon - fancy and feminineMy partner in crafting crime - Mon - layersPollycraft - Mon - old neglected stampTheres magic in the air - Mon - flowersCatered Crop - Mon - recipe - ink, ribbon, polka dotsCrafty Pad - Sun - flowersI did it creations - Sun - anything goesPile it on - Sun - Romantic and fancyAllsorts - Sat - blossomsCraft your days away - Sat - stripes and dots (both are ribbons stripes is under the dotted ribbon)One stop craft challenge - Sat - dots and spots (ribbon) My Graffico - anything goesTellens Place - EmbossingCopic Creations - favorite copic technique

Hi Everyone!!

Its my turn to post my project for the Sparkle Challenge on SSCC

I used Bride Gilli for my card and colored her in with my copics. I used Smooch in silver and sugarberry to add detail to her headpiece and bouquet. Then I cut her out with my Spellbinders Grand Caliber and Spellbinders Labels 14. Behind her on the card is Prism mirrored cardstock I embossed using my Spellbinders Impressibilities Floral and Stone.

Hope you enjoyed my card!
