Letter Full of Hearts

I want to thank Gretchen Barron for the inspiration for this card.  I think it is such a different look for a Valentine card.  Plus, I love the look of black with the other bright colors...it's kinda non-traditional.  Although Gretchen didn't have the scallop envelope (Sizzix die) on her card, I thought it would be so cute to let the hearts look like they were escaping to find their true love.  Ahhhhhh, such a romantic.  Anyone have a spare Cupid laying around?  I think I could definitely use one. The Sentiment is from Word Play stamp set. I used the Square Lattice Embossing Folder to inlay the hearts and envelope into the background black CS.  This was an good way to use up a lot of scraps.  If you's like to order the supplies for this card, just email me. I love to help you with your order.

Garden Gala is All a Flutter

I really enjoyed making this card using the new Greenhouse Gala Designer Series Paper and the All a Flutter Stamp Set. The butterflies were embossed using black embossing powder and colored with Stampin' Write Markers. The background of the art piece was embossed with the Big Shot using the Square Lattice Embossing Folder. Cardstock layers include Poppy Parade, Crumb Cake and Pear Pazzaz. This card was inspired by Kerin Sylvester
