A blog devoted to the cards I make in my tiny upstairs space. When my sister stays there, she calls it an "artist's garret". I'm not an artist, but am an enthusiastic cardmaker - hence the title "Cardmaker's Garret".

Red and Black Valentine

I've been busy making some Valentine cards that a friend of mine orders every year.  Here's another one of them:


I used a red glitter paste through a stencil on black cs. I trimmed it down and popped it up on fun foam, and added a die cut "Love You" sentiment.

It's going off to these challenges:

Color Hues "Red and Black"

 

Double D "Hearts" 

 

The Paper Players "Love and Friendship"


 







Supplies:
Paper - white and black cs
Size - A2
Accessories - hearts stencil, red glitter paste, "Love You" die, fun foam
