Hi
Stampers!
Happy
Valentine’s Day!! I decided to create a
Valentine with non-traditional colors and loved Nance’s PP182 Color Combination at The Paper Players and used a few punches for another card for the SUO90 Punch Parade Challenge. Plus, this week's Shining the Light Challenge at Our Daily Bread Designs is Non-Traditional Colors- love using non-traditional colors for holidays, don't you?
Again, I hope you
have had a chance to check out all of the entries and Design Team projects! So much inspiration and alot of hard work goes into creating and maintaining the challenge sites- if you have a chance, leave a comment (what we call "some love") :-)
To
create this card:
Use
the Big Shot™ with the heart die cut (I used a non SU! Die this time) to cut
out the opening on the card front from a piece of Midnight Muse cardstock. Emboss with the Woodgrain Textured
Impressions™ Embossing Folder and trim.
Emboss
a piece of Whisper White cardstock using the retired Lacy Brocade Textured
Impressions™ Embossing Folder and adhere
behind the heart opening. Add the paper
lace edge to the bottom of the Midnight Muse embossed layer (cut with the Large
Scallop Framelits™ and embossed with Lace Delicate Designs Textured
Impressions™ Embossing Folder- I had this one in my scraps ready to go :-))
Adhere
this panel onto a piece of Gold Foil cardstock and adhere again onto a piece of
Crisp Cantaloupe cardstock. Mount the entire
panel onto the Midnight Muse card base.
Stamp
the little banner from the stamp set, Follow Your Heart using Midnight Muse
Classic Ink onto Whisper White cardstock and punch out using the Bitty Banner
Punch. Add to the card front using Mini Glue Dots.
Emboss
a piece of Crisp Cantaloupe cardstock using the retired Lacy Brocade Textured
Impressions™ Embossing Folder- cut a strip to hide the seam of the paper lace
edge and cover the upper edge of the banner.
Create
the paper bow using the Large Oval and Hexagon Punches from the embossed Crisp
Cantaloupe cardstock. Add the Midnight
Muse Dahlia to the center of the bow and adhere to the front of the card.
Using
the Big Shot™ with the detailed heart die to cut out a piece from the Gold Foil
cardstock and add to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals®.
Create
the rolled flowers using the 1 ¾” and 1 ¼” Scallop Circle Punches from Crisp
Cantaloupe cardstock (punch out, cut a spiral towards the center, crimp with
the retired Crimper Tool, roll up and adhere).
Use the Bird Builder Punch to punch out the leaves from Midnight Muse
cardstock, adhere to the center of the heart and add the rolled flowers to
finish off the card.
