CARD I MADE FOR MY SWEETHEART

This is the card I made for my sweetheart for Valentine's Day!  The stamp is "Sweetheart Marci".  I colored the stamped image using colored pencils.  The sentiment "Happy Valentine's Day" is from the Mad About You stamp set.  I heat embossed the sentiment using Gold Embossing Powder.  The ribbon is a retired ribbon from CTMH.

10 THINGS I LOVE ABOUT YOU








(Click on the photos to see them up-close.)

These are the 4 pages I put together for everyone to make at the Februaury Workshop.  Everything to make all 4 pages is provided at the workshop. Everyone gets a complete package of the Marks Passages epoxy clips. All you need to bring is your adhesive and scissors. As always, I have extra adhesive and scissors on hand for you to purchase, if needed. The cost of the workshop is $20 this includes the cost of your kit.

Products used: Roxie Paper Pack; 10 Things stamp set; Mad About You stamp set; Chocolate Alphabet Small stamp set; Adore stamp set; Black and Colonial White Cardstock; Stamp Pads: Smoothie, Tulip and Black; Marks Passages epoxy clips.

The white square on the black cardstock was created by dry embossing and sanding.  The edges of the patterend cardstock (2 strips in center of layout) were sanded to reveal the white inner core.  I love this look!  I cut a piece of patterned Desert Sand cardstock to use as a photo mat.  I left the top of the mat open to form a pocket behind the mat to add more photos or journaling. 

The "Love" clip is from the Marks Passages epoxy clips set.  Marks Passages is no longer available from CTMH, but I have 1 set for sale at $3 + shipping. 

I made the 10-Things pocket and tags using the 10-Things stamp set and Chocolate Alphabet Small stamp set.

The lines on the black cardstock were made by scoring the cardstock using a Dry Embossing/Scoring Stylus and the groove in my Euro Personal Paper Trimmer  as a guide.

I made the flowers using a 2" Scallop Circle Punch and 1 1/4" Circle Punch.
  
The 3 hearts at the top of this layout were stamped using the Mad About You stamp set on Colonial White Cardstock.  I cut he Zebra printed cardstock to use as a photo mat, but it also serves as a pocket to add additional photos and/or journaling.

I have 1 Mad About You stamp set available for sale for $12 (retail $17.97) + $2 shipping (USA only). It is no longer available from Close To My Heart. This stamp set comes on a 6"x6" carrier sheet in a heavy plastic envelope with a snap closure.

The tag on the layout pictured above is also from the Mad About You stamp set.  The heart was stamped using the Adore stamp set.  I love this heart stamp!  The Desert Sand cardtock was left open at the top to form a pocket to add extra photos and/or journaling.

The clip is from the Marks Passages epoxy clips set (pictured below).  They come in a set of 6. Marks Passages is no longer available from CTMH, but I have 1 set for sale at $3 + shipping.
Marks™ Passages These stylish clips add sophistication and charm to your layouts and coordinate perfectly with the My Reflections® Passages kit. (6 clips: 2 large, 4 small)




MAD ABOUT YOU stamp set (pictured above) I have 1 Mad About You stamp set available for sale for $12 (retail $17.95) + $2 shipping (USA only).  This stamp set comes on a 6"x6" carrier sheet in a heavy plastic envelope with a snap closure.  To purchase this stamp set e-mail me at debra_pate@yahoo.com  

The red lines aroud the images in the Mad About You stamp set (pictured above) means that those images can be cut with a Cricut using the Art Philosophy cartridge.
