Woodblock Wednesday

 

Hello....popping in today with my card for Woodblock Wednesday! I pulled out this fabulous stamp that I have had forever to make my card. The stamp was made by Wordsworth in 2000, so I really have had it forever! I believe it was a gift from my sister. I am a HUGE fan of Lucille Ball and I Love Lucy and thought pairing all these fabulous red hearts for my background was perfect.

Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by....enjoy your day and please stay safe!

Today's contest is in honor of Valentine's Day and Melissa Bickford's new stamp series called Heart-2-Heart and the first set is just so much fun.

So our card challenge for the day is to create a card using hearts in any way you can imagine.

Make It Monday #50 Shaker Card

I haven't made a shaker card or embellishment in so long...this really brought back some fun memories for me.  Several years ago when I was scarpbooking and this was the new trend, my friends and I would try and come up with some pretty wild ideas for shaker boxes and what a mess did they make! Glitter, sparkles and confetti everywhere but it was fun...so night before last I could not sleep so I was up at 3:30am and working on my card and this is what I ended up making. So instead of using glitter or confetti I oped for buttons and I am very happy with the way it turned out.  Thanks for taking a peek!

Love it the Best Gift - CAS-ual Fridays Challenge #36

It seems as if it has been forever since I posted a card to my blog... Today's card was inspired by CAS-ual Friday's weekly challenge and Ted from the PTI forum. Ted posted the most beautiful Valentine's Day card on his blog and linked it the the forum and I just fell in love with it, so this is my version and it goes with the Penguin Suit theme for the challenge.  Thanks for taking a peek!

Clean & Simple Day 6 - Simple Embellishments

It was so nice to have the day off today and be able to get a few cards made.  This one was very different from anything I have done before...and I really love the end results. The flower is made from 6 one inch circle punches and then fold two sides just a bit. I don't have any large back round stamps so I just used what I had and turned the PTI set Background Basics - Sheet Music into one. I added the three little red hearts on the front so it would look more like a Valentine's Day card.  Thanks for taking a peek!

Solid Card Stock: PTI - White and Rustic White
Ink: SU - Real Red
Bakers Twine: PTI - Pure Poppy
Printed Paper: Echo Park - Yours Truly
Stamps: PTI - Background Basics - Sheet Music, WPlus9 - Love You More and Avocado Arts - Hello Friend

Clean and Simple Day 3 - Tone on Tone Dimensional

So today's card was a little bit more work, but well worth when you see the end results. For my card, I used PTI heart dies...I cut out six of each in white and then glued them all together and placed the final raspberry fizz heart on top.  It really gives the card a dimensional look that is pretty easy to do.  My sentiment is stamped in VersaMark with white embossing powder over the top.  So, like the class title, it is pretty clean and simple!  Thanks for taking a peek!

Be Mine Forever

One last card for the day and it's another Valentine's Day card.  I have had so much fun playing with these stamps and this card reminds me of my sister, she loves just about all hearts and has a big heart herself.  I cased this card from Kara, a PTI forum member who does incredible work. I did change it up a bit but I really like the way it turned out.  Thanks for taking a peek!

I have been really wanting to play with this new set from WPlus9 since I received it and now that I am off for Christmas break I got a chance to play around with it. It is just a great set with so many wonderful stamps.  While cleaning my craft room this week I came across this fun Valentine's Day paper from PTI.  This was the very first thing I ever ordered from PTI and I have been hooked since.  Thanks for taking a peek!
