Here's a little Valentine I put together.
I used my Silhouette to create a simple circle card. It's 5 inches in diameter. I cut a grey circle to cover the entire card front and hide the fold. I sprayed that layer with some Marshmallow Glimmer Mist.
I cut a frame in some dark grey cardstock to give a nice clean edge to the card.
The heart was cut from plain white cardstock. I sponged the Distress Ink colors Peacock Feathers, Seedless Preserves, and Picked Raspberry. Then I ran the colored heart through my Cuttlebug folder Textile. After the embossing I used a little Weathered Wood Distress Ink across the embossed parts to give a little more depth. I added the heart to the card with a thin layer of foam tape.
The fun banner was also cut from my Silhoutte. It's image id is #38321. I stamped on the banner with a Martha Stewart Valentine's set using Versamark ink and then I embossed using some Stampin' Up embossing powder in silver. I placed a thin layer of foam tape in the center of the banner, and some thick pop dots on the sides so the banner would sit a little higher than the heart.
Wah lah! This card was actually pretty simple and went together really quickly, but I think it has a big impact.
Thanks so very much for visiting today :)
