Thank you!

Today's card is for the last day of the Die Cut Diva's challenge for February. Thank you Hero Arts for being such a wonderful sponsor!!!


I started my card by stamping and coloring my images in a line. I stamped my sentiment and then die the lines above and below the images. I die cut the glitter green panel before adhering it to the cardbase. Added the top panel to the card to finish it off. 

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!!

I love you

My card today is for the Die Cut Diva's challenge which is all about love... I made that'll be good anytime of the year just so I can tell someone I love them! I thought using blue, red and gray inks made it a little more gender neutral. 


I started by die cutting my panel and the scrap of pattern paper. Then I cut the pattern paper so that it was angled across the top and used the angle edge to line up my sentiment. On a scrap of cardstock I stamped the large heart and then fussy cut it. Stamped some hearts on the card panel where the would float around the main heart before adhering the panel to the card base. The last thing I did was add the blue heart on top with some foam tape for a little dimension. 

I hope you come on by the DCD's blog and play along with our love challenge this month. Our sponsor is the wonderful Hero Arts! You still have a few days to link up here.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!!

Amore

Today's post is for...



Our theme this month is Valentine's/love. Here is my card for this month...

After printing my image colored her in with colored pencils. I layered some pattern papers and cardstock on the cardbase. I wanted to make sure she stayed the focal point so I decided not to add any embellies on the top panel with her.

I hope you join us at Open Minded Crafting Fun this month and play along for a chance to win one of the prizes this month. I can't wait to see everyone's projects! There were so many beautiful projects last month it made decision time super hard. ;-) 

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!!

Hugs and Kisses

Hello! Today's card is for the Die Cut Diva's blog and follow our Love theme.  It can be a Valentine, wedding or anniversary card, just as long as its all about the L word! ;-)  Don't forget our sponsor this month is Hero Arts!!!


My card is a valentine card since I make them for my hubby, 3 boys and our close family ( if i don't run out of time).  By that I mean all my craft stuff is crammed in cabinets right now so that our house looks walk through ready at all times, since it's officially on the market now! How I miss my craft table when working on a project, I made this card while sitting on the floor.

On to the card...

I stamped my sentiments in the center of the card and die cut a frame out of some pattern paper from my stash. Before adding the frame a distress the edges of said frame and card base with some distress ink It helped to blend the pinks together. Attached the frame to the cardbase using some foam tape and the card was done. Now to get it sent out in time! ;-)

Don't forget to stop by the Die Cut Diva's and play along for your chance to win a $25 shopping spree with Hero Arts! It's a great way to get goodies from their new catalog!
