Hello! Welcome back to my blog. We are past halfway the month of February. I created another card for Incy Wincy Design's February Challenge. The theme is Red +/Or Pink (50%) and/or Valentine's. Last day for entry submissions is on the 25th of this month.
I am using an image from one of our sponsors, The Paper Shelter, for the challenge. I love to color but sometimes, I also like to use pre-colored images on a card. It makes cardmaking easier!
I die cut a heart on an Authentique patterned paper. This paper is double sided so I used the B side of the patterned paper for the heart. To add some detail to this heart, I used the next smallest heart die to emboss the heart impression on the heart die cut. I inked the edges of this heart to make it pop a bit. I inlaid the heart to the patterned paper panel. I die cut the sides of the panel using a 5 1/4" x 4" rectangle die. I saved the negative cut and used the B side to frame the positive die cut. It makes it look like I matted the patterned paper panel.
I heat embossed the sentiment on the heart using Versafine Onyx Black ink and clear embossing powder. The stamp is from Mama Elephant Confetti stamp set.
I fussy cut the colored image leaving a white border around it. I adhered the colored printed image to the panel.
I hope you join us on our latest challenge. Thank you for visiting my blog. Have a blessed, brilliant and creative day!
