Guess Who's Back?!

Yes, I'm back!

After a long hiatus I have decided to rejoin Close To My Heart. I have really missed all of the friendships, papercrafting and just letting my creativity run wild! My starter kit is scheduled to be delivered tomorrow and I can't wait to dive in and play with my new goodies.

During this week I will be getting my blog pages in order and updated accordingly. I will also begin working on some upcoming projects that I am looking forward to sharing with you. In the meantime, you can view Close To My Heart's Annual Inspirations (catalog) by clicking on the image in the right sidebar, or you can visit my website and shop online.

Thanks for stopping by!

Countdown to Valentine's Day - Day 5...

 photo 005_zpsdfaf12ff.jpg 
 
Today I decided to make a card that's not your typical Valentine's Day card in that it's not all shades of pink and full of hearts. Instead, I used a Sorbet card base measuring 4 1/4" x 5" that I scored randomly, a Champagne mat measuring 3 1/4" square, Claire Bulk B&T Duos (floral) measuring 3" x 2 7/8", Claire Bulk B&T Duos (pattern) measuring 2 3/4" x 3/4" and I punched out the center of the largest flower using a scallop circle punch. I adhered the scallop flower to the top of my card with some foam tape, stamped the sentiment using January's SOTM - Happy Valentine's Day and embellished them with some bitty pearls.

Supplies used -

Paper: Claire Paper Packet (X7166B), Champagne (X5931) & Sorbet (X5751) Cardstocks
Stamps: Happy Valentine's Day - Jan SOTM (N/A)
Ink: Cashmere (Z2175) Exclusive Inks® Stamp Pads
Accessories: Opaques Pearls (Z1336) & 3-D Foam Tape (Z1151)
Other: Fiskars Scallop Circle Punch
