Love

 Hi All!! So glad you stopped by today to visit my blog.

Today I am going to share with you a card I made that can be given really to just about anyone special in your life that you love. The color of the background is totally up to you and can easily be changed depending on if you wanted to give this to a male or female. For this card I used Bubble Gum Embossing Powder from the Suzy West Candy Counter Collection, and Opaque Bright White and Gold Rich Embossing Powders from the WOW! Collection. I also used the Suzy West "Gratitude" Stamp Set to make the hearts.

So I started out by using a piece of bubble wrap that I inked up with embossing ink and then pressed onto my white cardstock. I then sprinkled it with the Bubble Gum Embossing Powder, tapped off the excess, and then heated it up.

Next I stamped out four sets of hearts from the Gratitude Stamp Set on black cardstock, and colored them by making two Opaque Bright White and two Gold Rich. I then cut out the hearts and attached them to pieces of wire I cut to give them stems.

I then took some gold ribbon and tied around the wire and added some rub-on letters that spell LOVE. I used pop-dots on the backs of the hearts to give the card a little depth. I then layered the white cardstock on some black cardstock and your all done.


Supper easy and now you have a great card to give to someone special.

Warmly,
Sherrie
