Love Greeting Card

Thank you so much for stopping by. My name is Ana and creating cards is a passion of mine. It is with great joy that I present to you this cute Valentine’s Day card. This card uses the "Love" stamp from the Love Faith & Family Vintage Art Rubber Stamp Full Sheet SC88I made it for Valentine's Day but it really can be given to someone special on any given day.  Who doesn't like to hear they are loved right?






Supply list:


Instructions:

Begin by adding the red foil cardstock to the card base. The shininess of the foil will add a nice elegant look to this Valentine's Day card.
 
Next, stamp the image of the word love on to a watercolor paper. This cute and vintage looking “Love” stamp makes the perfect center piece for a card. 

This next step is optional.
Cut out the inside frame of the stamp. This step is suggested so that a piece of red foil cardstock can be placed under the stamp creating a shiny frame around the word love.

Creating a 'frame' or  'border' like this helps to balance the card once all the elements are put together.  

Blending markers such as Copics, are useful in creating a ombre effect in your card making as I did with the Love stamp.


Using some watercolor markers, choose  colors that will coordinate with your card theme. 
After you have finished coloring in the card, run it  through a die cutting machine with the hearts embossing folder.
This will create dimension. 
Cut this piece to a size of 1/4" smaller than the first layer (the red foil layer).





Adhere the Love onto 1" strip of red foil. 

Finish the card by touching up the letters  with some flossy accents so that they would shine just like the red foil cardstock that surrounds the card. 





Simple and quick Valentine's Day Card created with this wonderful Love Stamp. 



I hope this inspires you, I hope you create and be happy. Thank you so much for stopping by.                                                                             ~ Ana
