Artbooking Made Easy: Crush on Artbooking

Color Dare #78 - Hollyhock & Indian Corn Blue

This week I made a tiny card with a big message!  This 3" x 3" gift card is the perfect way to brighten your loved one's Valentine's Day.

• All stamps are from the Whoo's Your Valentine Stamp Set (D1548).
• The first balloon was stamped in Indian Corn Blue ink on a White Daisy card.
• The second balloon was stamped in Hollyhock ink on a White Daisy Cricut cut shape.
• Balloon strigs were drawn with a black pen.
• The sentiment was stamped with black on Hollyhock cardstock, cut into a banner shape.
• The right edge of the front of the card was punched with the Scallop Border Punch (Z1851).
• Bitty Sparkles (Z1263) were added to the scallops.
• A strip of Hollyhock cardstock was added to the right edge of the inside of the card.

Valentine's Day Cards

Tuesday, February 4th

6:30 p.m.

Cost: $18

Let your loved ones know you're thinking of them with these beautiful Valentine's Day cards.  As always, in this class you will learn techniques that will carry through to any theme.  We will make a tri-shutter card, experiment with washi tape, and learn the popular chalkboard technique.

Color Dare #76 - Smoothie

This time of year, many people associate shades of pink with Valentine's Day.  But pink can brighten up any greeting or occasion.

• All images are from the Life is Tweet stamp set. They are stamped with Smoothie ink on Colonial White cardstock.
• Smoothie paper accents come from the Dotty For You paper pack.
• I painted a Color-Ready Garden Flower with Create-A-Shade Pearl Paint mixed a couple of drops of Smoothie reinker.
• Conveniently, the Just Blooms Paper Flowers also come in Smoothie.  The smaller bloom layered on top of the bigger flower is simply flipped upside down to get the lighter shade.
• I added sparkle with sparkles, bitty sparkles, and Stardust Glitter Glitz Gel.
