This is a fun 4″ square note card I made using the Level 1 Hostess Stamp Set Love Bugs. I stamped the love bugs on Gina K Luxury White card stock with Memento Black Ink (both are best for coloring with Copic Markers). I layered the white onto basic black and then added a 1/2″ Real Red Epoxy Brad (from the newest Ocassions Mini Catalog). The card base is Real Red and the sentiment “love bugs” is stamped in black ink on white card stock, trimmed out with scissors and adhered to the bottom
Shades of Spring Valentine
I decided to go with a slightly non traditional color scheme in making this Valentine’s Day card. For the base, I used Old Olive card stock (but Certainly Celery would also be a good choice). The pink patterned paper is from Shades of Spring DSP and the green polka dot paper is from Tall Tales DSP.
I cut the striped DSP to 4″ x 5 1/4″ and the polka dotted DSP to 4″ x 3″. I used the Scallop Trim Border Punch on the top edge of the polka dotted paper, and the Small Heart Punch at the bottom. Then, I adhered the green DSP to the pink DSP and tied some Regal Rose 5/8″ Grosgrain Ribbon around that panel.
The sentiment is from Well Scripted, stamped in Certainly Celery ink on Whisper White card stock. I punched it out with the Full Heart Punch and layered it onto Regal Rose cut out with the Scalloped Heart of Hearts Embosslit using the Big Shot. That is attached to the card base with Stampin Dimensionals.
