I loved the card I made for my husband so much that I decided to use the same stamp sets to create some cards for families that we know and love from church. We minister to them on a regular basis and try and watch out for them and ensure that they are taken care of.
For these cards I changed the orientation to landscape and adhered some patterned paper cut down with a stitched rectangle to the front of a side folding A2 cardbase. As with the other card I stamped the images onto Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White Cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with Copic Markers. Once the coloring was complete I fussy cut the images with scissors. A different sentiment was stamped in the center of the heart the bear is holding with VersaMark Ink and heat embossed white.
As in the previous card, the candy hearts were adhered directly to the card front with liquid glue and the bear with 3M 1/2" Foam Tape and the truffles with Simon Says Stamp Big Mama Foam Tape.
A smaller banner was cut from some scraps of red cardstock and a sentiment was stamped with VersaMark Ink and heat embossed white. To get the sentiment to fit on the banner I did a little stamp surgery and cut each word apart so I cut add them on top of each other rather than in a single line. The banner was adhered with Simon Says Stamp's Big Mama Foam Tape. I decided to add a little pink heart to the top of the banner, along with a baker's twine bow. Love the way these turned out. All in all I made six cards with this design. Each a little different depending on the patterned paper I used for the background. The last one I did a cascade of hearts. I love each and every one of them. A well used stamp set, which is how I gage if it's worth the cost. Let me know which you like best.
