Love You Forever | ft. Lawn Fawn "Booyah"

Hi everyone, thank you for stopping by. I hope you're having a great day.

Today I thought I would share a card I had created a long time ago, but never got around to posting. I created this card for all the horror movie watching, zombie loving crazies like me who would truly have their houses decked out in Halloween gear all year round if they didn't think their families would question their sanity. I tip my hat to the people who do it anyway.

I created this card for those people and to celebrate their love the way only they can.

To begin, I stamped both the hair pieces from the Booyah stamp set by Lawn Fawn, masked them off and then stamped the ghosts, using Memento Tuxedo Black ink on 110lb Copic-friendly cardstock. I then coloured the images with Copic markers and added a couple stitches.

I die cut them using a smaller torn paper die and sponged Dried Marigold Distress ink around the edges. I popped that up on some foam tape and set it aside.

For my background panel, I die cut one of the larger torn paper dies and used the Falling Hearts stencil by Simon Says Stamp with Black Soot Distress ink to fill in the background. I took some Hickory Smoke Distress ink and sponged along the edges so it wouldn't be such a stark contrast.

I adhered the heart panel to the front of a standard A2 sized card base in black, then adhered my panel with the ghosts.

On the inside it says "Love you Forever" in CTMH Cranberry ink.

I hope you like today's card and are inspired to create something of your own. If you haven't already, please follow me on the right side bar or over on Facebook, so you don't miss any future posts. Drop me a line in the comments section below and let me know what you think.

If anyone happens to know the name of the "torn paper" die I keep referring to, please let me know! I know that they are nesting dies and there are maybe 5 in the set, they look like Spellbinder but I can't find them anywhere. Help!!

Valentine's Day 2016 Series - Card 13

Hi everyone, thank you for stopping by. I hope you are all having a great day.

When I got this hearts in a heart die I was so excited. It had been out of stock for ages and I finally got my hands on it. When I started the Valentine's Day series I totally forgot all about it.

Until now.

To create this card I used the hearts die on a piece of black paper, and set all the hearts aside. I then used the die on this red panel and placed two way tape of the back to allow for easier inlaying of the hearts.

Pro Tip: Keep the hearts that you are using for inlaying (the black ones in this case) in place for where they are to be set. It was a nightmare to figure out where they all went. While they all look of comparable size. They don't all just fit wherever you want. So that took some time.

I used the Love You die on both colours of card stock as well and inlaid those the same way. I didn't like the way the bottom looked so I added the 1/8" white satin ribbon for a bit of interest and dimension.

I hope you all like the card for today and are inspired to create something of your own.
