Watercolored Love U Card

Hello everyone,

I'm sharing a card made for few challenges.  

• PTI's 7th Anniversary Challenge: Create a project using a large word as the focal point
• WPlus9: Water Color Made Easy
• WPlus9: Step It Up
• SSS Wednesday Challenge: Have a Heart

To make this card, first i die cut a heart on a piece of cardstock to make a template.  Put the template over a 4x5.25 piece of card stock, then stamped the flowers using water color technique (I used Inktense watercolor pencils: water the stamps first and scribbled the colored pencils on top, then stamped).  Next i die cut 'Love U' from my stamped floral background.  Die cut 'Love U' 3 more times from scrap paper to layer and add dimension.  Now my focal sentiment looks like thickers.  Before putting 'Love U' back to the floral background, i colored the sides with red Copics.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Have a great evening!

Supplies:

Stamps: WPlus9 (Fresh Cut Florals)
Dies: PTI (Headline Alphabet Die)
Paper: PTI (white, raspberry fizz)
Other: Inktense watercolor pencils

PTI's 7th Anniversary Celebration - Day 2, Card 2

Hello again!  This is my 2nd card for today's challenge at Papertrey Ink.  PTI is celebrating their 7th Anniversary Celebration.  

Lately, i have shaker cards in my mind.  So when i see this digi by Heather Nichols, i thought of making a shaker card right away.  Since i don't own a sewing machine, i use washi tape to to close the seams.  The technique is by Julie, can be seen here.  She is so clever.  

I'm linking this up to Addicted to CAS Code Word: LOVE

Thanks again for stopping by my blog.  Your comments are greatly appreciated.  Have a wonderful day!

PTI's 7th Anniversary Celebration - Day 2, Card 1

Hello everyone, today is the 2nd day of PTI's 7th Anniversary Celebration.  I'm playing along with the challenge today using one of the free printable images.  

A handmade card can't get easier than this.  I printed the image on a piece of white card stock, punch a tiny hole to add a bow.  Then i adhered on aqua mist card base.  Few faux  pearls added to the center of the flowers.  

Thank you for stopping by.  Hope you have a wonderful day!
