Allsorts Challenge 558: Add A Heart

It's time already for a new theme at Allsorts challenge and this week Kath is hosting. For her theme she chose: Add a Heart. Perfect for Valentine's Day next week, so hopefully you'll decide to share with us this week. We have a great prize to give away, a cute stamp set by Chloe Stamps.

We don't celebrate Valentine's Day in a big way, but I do  like to make cute Valentines Day cards for everyone in the family, and this is one of the cards I made.

The Penny Black stamp from the set Furry Affection has been  heat embossed on Bristol Vellum paper then colored with Copic markers. I used Stampin Up's French Script stamp again this week using Victorian Velvet ink to add some interest to the background and the edges were distressed. The postal stamps images are from Penny Black's set Posted With Love and the sentiment you make me smile is part of the set Furry Affection.

The patterned papers are all old from my stash and I added some gingham ribbon to the card. Hearts were die cut using an old Sizzix foam die (heart die options) and I used some jute twine for more interest. The  hearts were cut out on white card stock then inked with victorian velvet ink and I stamped more of SU's french script onto the heart. 




Thanks so much for visiting! Hope you're having a wonderful weekend!

ONLINE FURS said...

It is always good to pay a little money on a coat you never want to take off. By choosing a coat that can be worn comfortably anywhere, you can reduce the cost per piece and make a purchase worth buying. Do not rush to the store. Always leave your head and turn carefully until you find the coat. Online shopping is a great way to educate you and learn how to do it. Here are three tips for choosing a new fur for more efficient shopping.
