This sweet little card comes from my upline, Lorri Heiling. One of my stampers (Linda) spotted it and it was just too cute to pass up. Valentine's Day will be here faster than we know and you'll want to get a head start on those special cards.
Recipe:
Real Red - 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored and folded at 4 1/4"
Basic Black - 5 1/4" x 4"
Whisper White - 5 1/8" x 3 7/8"
I used scraps for the hearts - Melon Mambo, Real Red, Sweet Sugarplum, Pink Pirouette. Just use whatever you have that will match up nicely.
The hearts were cut using the die from the Mini Treat Bag Thinlits. It cuts several at a time, so it won't take long to get lots of little hearts. Plus, I found I was able to cut two colors at a time without too much hard cranking on the Big Shot.
Stamps: Jar of Love and Labels to Love. Labels to Love is from the 2017 Holiday Mini, but it is carrying over to the spring! Yay!
Now, don't freak out on me here.... but... I cut the LOVE stamp into individual letters. You could work with a perfectly clean stamp and just ink one letter at a time, cleaning it well in between so you don't get a shadow from the previous letter.
A little extra that I added to my card was to add some lines to the hearts that are coming out through the lip of the jar. If you just glue them down on the ridges there, they won't look like their coming from inside the jar. So, once they are glue down, I used my Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker and drew on the lines. You can also see a little bit of Clear Wink of Stella on a few of the hearts.
In Phoenix today, we're all watching the sky for clouds and rain! We have an actual 90% chance of rain over night tonight. We rarely have a 90% chance of rain. It's so exciting. May have to have a party to celebrate! LOL I'd rather it be in the daytime, but we're so dry around here we'll take whatever we can get!
Thank you for looking in today! Happy Tuesday!
