SENDING LOTS OF LOVE (3)

We have the Lots of Hearts week going on over at the Lawn Fawn Blog I created this card for it.

For the background, I used Kraft cardstock and die cut the Itsy Bitsy Polka Dot Background die from it. I layered some Vanilla malt cardstock underneath.

I die cut the Little Letter elements from Lawn Fawn cardstocks as well: Vanilla Malt, Chili Pepper, Guava, Ballet Slippers. I assembled the envelopes and the pen.

I added everything to the background. I stamped the sentiment, which is from Special Delivery. I stamped in Wild Rose and Lobster inks.

I added white highlights with a gel pen. I really like the look of these.

BLOWING KISSES FOR VALENTINE'S DAY (1)

I created this really cute Valentine's Day card, with the Valentine Mice stamp set from Lawn Fawn. This set was a free gift with my latest purchase at the Lawn Fawn Shop

For the background, I used Lilac cardstock and the Layered Hearts Stencils. I used three Distress Oxide Inks for ink blending the hearts: Shaded Lilac, Dusty Concord and Villainous Potion.

I also die cut the letter and envelope from the Little Letter die set. I used Sugarplum cardstock for the envelope and Vanilla Malt cardstock for the two letters. I ink blended the letters with Shaded Lilac Distress Oxide Ink. I used the Falling Hearts Stencils on both and used Dusty Concord and Villainous Potion Distress Oxide Ink for inking the little hearts.

I stamped the images from Valentine Mice and colored them with Copic Markers:

Mice: E41 - E43 - E44/ E11 - E04

Envelope: B60 - B63/ V25 - V17

Heart: B60 - B63

I fussy cut all the images and assembled the card. I used a white gel pen to add highlights and dots to the images and die cuts.
