I added lots of layers and dimension to my heart creation.
On Friday I was visiting some of the 263 blogs I follow, and one of my bloggy inspiration friends, Faith Abigail, made this beautiful Halloween card for Stuck On U Sketches challenge blog. This blog has been around for 2 years and I don't recall ever coming across it before now. What a gem of a challenge blog! Now I follow 264 blogs...
I just found out last week that my aunt's dh has stage four liver cancer. I want to make each of them a card to let them know how much they are loved. This hearts challenge was just the motivation I needed to create a card for my aunt. I started with my Jillibean Soup "Dutch Mustard" 6x6 paper pad and pulled out the hearts paper. I recently got my Sophie cartridge, but I have only used it once. I was crafting with my sweet friend, Court, and she suggested this heart cut (p.59.)
If you are looking for inspiration, check out Stuck On U Sketches challenge blog...you'll be glad you did! Their DT is uber-talented.
Supplies:
Cricut cartridge: Sophie p.59 cut @ 3 1/2"
paper: Jillibean Soup "Dutch Mustard Soup" 6x6 mini pad; Bazzill orange card stock; Stampin' Up! whisper white card stock
stamp: My Pink Stamper "Winter Treats & Sayings"
pearls: Imaginisce i-rock
jumbo brads: Bazzill
ribbon: from Michael's
Happy Monday!
