Stamping with Friends Blog Hop Group Banner

Hello and welcome to our Stamping with Friends Blog Hop. We are a group of demonstrators worldwide, sharing our passion for Stampin’ Up! We post twice a month on the first and third Saturday of the month. Each month a theme, technique, card, color, sketch and more is assigned. If you are new here, “Welcome.” If you are a subscriber, “Welcome back.” We know you will enjoy seeing our beautiful creations.

This month’s theme is Bloggers’ Choice.

Love

Each week, our team lead inspires us with a sketch challenge.  Still playing with the Made with Love Sweet, I created another card inspired by this sketch.

Card sketch

I decided to turn my card sideways. I had not used the stamps yet, so I took the opportunity to do some simple stamping.

Made with Love

This card turned out beautifully. Perfect for your Valentine.

Instructions

  1. Card base is Real Red cardstock, 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ scored 4-1/4″.
  2. Cut two strips of DSP 1-1/2″ x 5-1/4″ and 2″ x 4-1/2″. A piece of Pretty In Pink cardstock cut to 2″ x 3-1/2″. Use Strawberry Slush Ink, stamp LOVE on the right side.
  3. Stamp a small heart with Strawberry Slush ink on Basic White. Using Nested Essentials dies, cut a ribbon.
  4. Start by adhering the 1-1/2″ x 5-1/4″ strip down the middle.
  5. Next, adhere to the 2″ x 4-1/4″ strip, slightly overlapping the other. Now, adhere to the cardstock piece, slightly overlapping the DSP. Adhere the ribbon, then using dimensionals, add the heart over the ribbon.

I hope this project inspired you to relax, create, and enjoy a little crafty time for yourself. Card making should be fun, not stressful—and I love sharing ideas that make it easy and enjoyable.
