Hello all! Valentine’s Day Release from Hero Arts is live and its yet another spectacular one. I am loving new sentiments (both clear and wood stamps) and new die + stamp combos. Have you spotted a favorite yet?
I’d like to start by sharing 2 cards I made using You Are My Happy stamp set (I just adore the Truly Madly Deeply sentiment), Heart Vine and Love You Messages wood stamps and Love Stamp & Cut combo.
I went with very traditional pinks with a bit of green and yellow and just a touch of gold. My Love You – Happy Valentine’s Day card also features an all time favorite Color Layering Hibiscus stamp set. I stamped 3 flowers using Bubble Gum, Ultra Pink and Red Royal and added a few leaves using two lighter greens from the Lime to Forever Green ombre pad.
HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY CARD
The Love You sentiment was heat embossed using Brass embossing powder and the Happy Valentine’s Day one was embossed using white onto a piece of white cardstock colored using Ultra Pink ink pad. I also added a few little black stamped hearts as accent pieces.
This card wouldn’t have been complete without a strip of gold mirror cardstock adhered at the bottom.
TRULY MADLY DEEPLY CARD
For my second project, the Truly Madly, Deeply I started by stamping the Heart Vine in Bubble Gum. I heat embossed the sentiment using Brass embossing powder and stamped it again using Black ink but offsetting a bit for a fun shadow look (the xoxo was stamped in the same way).
I also added a few flowers and leaves from the Color Layering Let Love Grow set, also added a strip of gold mirror cardstock and foam mounted my stamped panel onto a 4 1/4 square card base.
LOVE CARD
My third project was done in a slightly different color scheme, I went with gold + red + white. I started by heat embossing a stunning Garland Bold Prints background in gold. Also stamped Candy Stripe background in Raspberry Jam and added a thin strip of red cardstock to my background.
I die cut a heart from the Floral Stamp & Cut combo out of Gold Mirror cardstock and also die cut two “love” words out of gold and red papers. Foam mounted everything on to a card base and added a few red enamel dots to complete this project.
