Sneak Peek: Love

Hi friends, this is Angelica, and I’m sharing sneak peaks of the new Love stamp set, which is in the upcoming January 9th release.

For my first card, I started with my background. I used the new Layered Hearts stencils and the following Distress Oxide Inks: Aged Mahogany, Victorian Velvet, and Tattered Rose. I blended Victorian Velvet and a touch of Aged Mahogany around the edges, then used the stencils to ink-blend on the hearts. Before removing Layer B stencil, I brushed the hearts with Ranger Perfect Pearl powder for shimmer.

I used the new Love coordinating dies to die-cut four different pink/red tone card stock. I stacked and glued the letters together, then attached them to the heart panel. I added the panel to a card base with foam adhesive, and added a stamped sentiment and colored heart from the new Love stamp set. I brushed the letters and colored heart with a shimmer pen for extra sparkle, and added shimmer and added Crystal Glaze to the heart to finish the card.

My second card I am sharing today is a bright shaker card.

I used the small accessory stamps from the stamp set to make my own background. This is one of my favorite card making techniques to do. I stamped all of the images onto white card stock, then trimmed the panel. I used Love Shaker die die-cut a window. (I did this before coloring so I didn’t color more than what was necessary.) Before coloring the images with Copic markers, I added a drop shadow to each image with W3 and W1 markers.

To make the shaker element, I added 1/8″ Scor tape around the backside of the die-cut window. I attached a piece of acetate onto the adhesive to close the window. I turned the panel around and added the Love shaker die cut to the front. I turned the panel back around and added thin foam adhesive strips around the window.. I filled the window with Iridescent Heart Confetti, and closed the window with a another piece of acetate. I added foam adhesive all over the back of the panel, and attached it to a red card base. I used a shimmer pen and Crystal Glaze to add sparkle and shine to finish the card.

Stop by tomorrow for a brand new sneak peek of the new release!
