Blog Hop Stamp Fans

Happy Valentines Stamp Fans!

Today I have something special for you: I am taking part in a Blog Hop organised by one of my Stampin' Up! teamies in The Netherlands. So if you're looking for some more inspiration then follow the arrows at the bottom to check out all the other projects in the hop.

Our theme is red/pink to link in with Valentines day but it doesn't have to be a Valentines Card. I did, however, make a Valentines card for my son using Real Red, Melon Mambo and a little bit of Bermuda Bay to match the pink up with the red.

I started by stamping the stripey background in all 3 colours using the Incredible Like You stamp set. I adhered this to the background and punched three circles out of a piece of Whisper White Card Stock slightly smaller than the card base. I Attached this over the stripes using Stampin Dimensionals to create some height.

Next I stamped the Image of the woman hugging the child, from the Artfully Aware set, on some watercolour paper and colouored in using my water brush and some ink. While that dried I punched out a few circles from coloured cardstock and heat embossed the sentiment (from the Well Said stamp set) on some Real Red cardstock using White Embossing Powder.

Finally I adhered all the circles and the sentiment with lots of dimensionals again:-)

And inside I stamped "Love you more than all the Stars" from the Little Twinkle stamp set:
