Last night I did a Shoebox Swap with some of my downline. I think I've talked about these swaps before and how fun they are! We always have a theme and this time around is was Love. I'll share all the projects from the swap in the coming days...or weeks! Today, I'm going to share the card I designed!
I'm not going to give you a list of supplies for this one...there's 4 stamp sets alone! I will tell you that I used Regal Rose, Basic Gray and Very Vanilla. I chose one of the new Valentine's sets you can find in the Occasions Mini (the xoxoxox, Hugs & Kisses and small heart images are all from that set).
There's a lot going on with this card. I couldn't stop adding layers of stamping, paper, embellishments...ya know!?!
I do want to make sure you see the dimension and the piece of Hodge Podge Hardware.
The little heart is punched out and then popped up with a Stampin' Dimensional. And, that hardware!!! Oh, the hardware! It was too perfect when I originally put it on the card, so I roughed it up a bit with a sanding block. It takes a bit of muscle, but it sands nicely. I love the look of the raw metal peeking through the vanilla finish.
Have an inspired day and Happy New Year!
