Valentines Day Card 1

Hi everyone, Maria here with details of how I made my card for last weeks card.  I used 3 different stamp sets for this card and they are all available from the Colourific shop.

Here is a list of things you will need:
Love Wordage stamp set
Blossom Hearts stamp
Tiny Flower Background stamp
A4 stamping card
A5 card blank
Worn Lipstick Distress Ink
Tea Stain Distress Ink
Broken China Distress Ink
Glue
3D Foam pads

Here is how I made the card.

1.  Cut a piece of the stamping card to A5 size.  Using all three distress inks blend the colours in patches all over the card, overlapping in places.
2.  Stamp the Love Wordage stamp in different directions using the Worn Lipstick ink.
3.  Using the Tiny Flower Background stamp - just in your hand - no block, randomly stamp parts of the stamp in the spaces using a mixture of all 3 inks.
4.  On a separate piece of stamping card, stamp 2 Blossom Hearts using the Worn Lipstick ink and blend from the outside into the middle making it darker in the outside.
5.  Cut out the hearts leaving a small border.
6.  On another piece of stamping card, stamp the Love Wordage Stamp in Worn Lipstick and colour in using the same colour by stamping into a glass mat and picking up the ink with a paintbrush.
7.  Attach the two hearts to the background using foam pads - remembering to overlap at one side.
8.  Cut out the Love word leaving a small white border and glue into the two hearts.
9.  Stamp the sentiment from the Love Wordage stamp set, using the Worn Lipstick ink. Cut out and attach to the background using foam pads.
10. Attach to the A5 card blank using tacky glue.

There you go, a quick and easy Valentines Day card for that special someone in your life.
