Hello Crafters!

I have a quick and easy Valentine card for you today! A teeny bit of stamping and coloring with lots of die cutting and ink blending.

I started by running some white cardstock through my die cutting machine with a few of the large clouds. I cut a full A2 sized card front from white and ran it through with the Fluttering Hearts Pierced Coverplate. Then got out my distress inks!

I added a little bit of shaded lilac to the bottom of each of the clouds for some extra dimension. I covered the entire background in salty ocean then added a little blueprint sketch around the edges. I used the negative of my clouds as a stencil to add a few darker clouds in the background for added interest.

I stamped my bee in copic safe ink before coloring him up with a golden yellow combination. I cut him out with his matching dies. I used the heart days from the same set to cut out a few read hearts too. I love the bright pop of read in this card! I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment on the same red cardstock. Everything was added in various layers of dimension using foam tape. You can check out the entire process in the video below.

Thanks so much for swinging by!
