Trailing

 Hi there!  Hope everyone is keeping well.  I haven't had a chance to make anything new lately but I was going through my cards that I made for my last card order back in November and came across a few I never posted.

Today's card is a sympathy card. I started by sponged some soft blue, and yellow for the background.  Once that was completed I put my it in my Misti, added the Penny Black stamp - Trailing to the other side, then continued to add various green inks, misted lightly and stamped. I continued to do this until I was happy with the results.



I stamped the sentiment also from Penny Black in black versafine.  I didn't want to add any bling or such, just wanted to keep this simple, so I scored a line along the bottom and up the right side for a bit of detail.

I appreciate you stopping by, see you again real soon! Hugs,

Pauline

Be my Valentine

 Hi everyone.  Hope you had a good weekend.

Today, I have another Valentine card to share, this one is more on the 'masculine' side.

I started off by hot foiling the background using bronze foil and The Greetery - Deco Triangles Hot foil plate onto some kraft cardstock.  I then stamped one of the sentiments from Pretty Postmarks in a kraft ink, then splattered with Tim Holtz holiday mica stain - Peppermint Stick.  


The wood heart slice die is also from The Greetery, cut it once from dark brown and once from kraft.  On the kraft piece I sponged some distress oxide walnut stain around the edges. Love is also from the Greetery, cut 2 times and adhered together.  I die cut some red hearts and then adhered them to the card.

Finished off with some gold pearls, some small black hearts from Trinity Stamps and a little twine bow on the 'love'

Thank you for stopping by today.  Have yourself a wonderful day!
