You Warm My Heart

Hi Friends!

Today I am sharing another quick card using  Sweet ‘n Sassy Stamps - Texture Tiles 4, Texture Tiles 1,  11th Birthday Throwback: Cocoa's Cups   and Home for the Holidays. 

I am participating with the 2018 Fall| Winter Coffee Love’s Blog Hop Challenge along with the Simon Monday “B is for ?“ (B= Bermuda Bay) Challenge, the Double Trouble #16 “Three Amigos & Coffee Lovers (Winter/Holiday)” Challenge (I used heat embossing) and the  Word Art Wednesday #364-#365 “Anything Goes”Challenge. 

If you have not had a chance to visit the above challenge sites or the SNSS Blog/FB Page yet, I encourage you to do so- gorgeous inspiration from all!

To create this card:

1). Using a Stampin’ Write Bermuda Bay marker, ink the plaid image from Texture Tiles 4, “huff” onto the stamp (to re-moisten the ink) before stamping onto a piece of white cardstock.  Repeat the process a few times, splash a bit of water onto the panel and once dried, die cut with a stitched rectangle die.

2). De-static the dried panel with an embossing powder tool, ink the sentiment from 11th Birthday Throwback: Cocoa's Cups  with a black archival ink, apply clear embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool.  Using Melon Mambo ink, stamp the splatter image Texture Tiles 1 , mount onto a piece of Melon Mambo cardstock (die cut with a stitched rectangle die), and mount onto a piece of Bermuda Bay cardstock before mounting onto the white card base.

3). De-static another piece of white cardstock with an embossing powder tool, ink the mouse image from the 11th Birthday Throwback: Cocoa's Cups stamp set with a black archival ink, stamp onto the prepared panel, apply clear embossing ink and heat set with a heat tool. Ink the holly/heart image form Home for the Holidays with black archival ink, stamp into the center of the teacup, apply clear embossing ink and heat set with a heat tool.  Once the embossing powder has cooled, use water-based markers to water color the image before fussy-cutting.

 4). Mount the fussy-cut image onto the card front with dimensional foam.  Use a clear glitter pen to add shimmer to the heart.

 

5). Add a few sequins to finish off the card.
