I've been loving making Valentines this year! Here are three more.
For Double D "Shades of Pink":
I had a scrap of background that was made by smooshing with pink Oxide inks. I die cut the Cupid (or is it just a fairy? I guess Cupid has to have an arrow) and hearts from it. I used a scrap of pink grosgrain ribbon to create something for the fairy / Cupid to sit on, glued the leg and hand down, and popped up the wing and head with foam tape. The whole panel is popped up on fun foam.
And for Casology "Affection":
I put the flower stems stamp in my MISTI and inked it up with Tombow markers, stamping onto white cs, and reinking and restamping until I was happy with the results. I die cut it with the Memory Box heart die that has stitching on the outside part of the die, but not on the actual heart. I used the same die on linen cs, leaving the heart in place, and then layering my stamped heart on top. I added a dark red die cut sentiment and popped the panel up on fun foam.
And finally for The Flower Challenge "Occasions" - my occasion is Valentine's Day.
I stamped the flower from SU Elements of Style set and coloured it with coloured pencils. I die cut the stitched heart frame out of the top layer and set it over the flowers on fun foam for dimension.Challenges:

ReplyDeleteyou made some very pretty cards. My favorite is the Affection one.
All three V-day cards are fantastic, Susan! The smooshed ink pattern is so pretty and perfect for the fairy/Cupid, the subtle linen texture goes well with the marker ink stamped flowers, and the pencil colored bright flowers pop beautifully from behind the heart-shaped window.
