Do you believe in love for Stay Crafty with A Blog Named Hero

There's a new Stay Crafty challenge with A Blog Named Hero! The theme is "Do you believe in love?", so I'm sharing this wedding card I made for Emily and Matthew (who were married a few weeks ago). I made a similar card a few months ago where I used numbers instead of letters, for a birthday, so this is a CASE of one of my own cards (but with letters instead of numbers!)

February My Monthly Hero kit

This month's My Monthly Hero kit from Hero Arts is all about peace and love. The Premium part of the kit includes  a heap of pre-printed die cut flowers, feathers, butterflies and words. I was having difficulty deciding on an arrangement on one card, because I wanted to use all the flowers, but I also wanted to have some white space on my card - so this was my solution!

Love you more for Paper Rose

 Today, I'm sharing a Valentine's Day card I made for Paper Rose Studio.

I cut a piece of black cardstock to be half the size of my card front, and I stamped the Text Background stamp on an angle with white pigment ink. I then adhered this piece to the left size of my card base. I cut the Flourish Heart Die from pink cardstock twice. I ink blended the edges in red and purple inks. I cut one of the hearts in half, and adhered the two halves to the top and bottom of the card. I adhered the other hear right in between the two halves. I chose a sentiment from Black and White Sentiments and adhered it over the bottom right of the centre heart.

A rainbow of hearts for WOW! embossing

I am a guest of WOW! Embossing for June, and I had great fun playing with embossing glitter, a stencil, and their fab foilers for this card.

 

And I made a video - you can find it on the WOW YouTube channel!

Cards for Ukraine

The cardmaking community is rallying in support of Ukraine - there will be a card auction to raise money for charities helping on the ground in Ukraine. If you are on Instagram, please follow @ukrainecarddrive for more details on this. We're also using the hashtag #cardsforukraine to share our blue and yellow creations (the colours of the Ukraine flag). 

I will be donating to one of the charities listed HERE.
