I have a couple of cards to show you today. First up is this adorable Pure Innocence card. I started with a Steel Gray card stock base, then added a layer of Sweet Tooth card stock on which I stamped up some stripes using Plaid Builder Background and pigment inks in some of the new colors: Ripe Raspberry pigment ink, Green Room pigment ink, Cherry Crisp pigment ink, and Lavender Fields pigment ink. I popped that up on foam mounting tape, 1/2”, then adhered a panel of Sweet Tooth card stock on which I stamped Tiny Hearts Background with Sweet Tooth pigment ink and heat embossed with clear detail embossing powder. Next, I cut PI Heart Banner Die-namics from X-Press It Blending Card, stamped PI heart Banner with Black Licorice hybrid ink, and colored it with Copic markers. I popped that up on foam, then added a Pierced Heart STAX Die-namics cut from Grout Gray card stock and arranged a bouquet of Mini Royal Roses Die-namics cut from Cherry Crisp card stock, Lavender Fields card stock, and Ripe Raspberry card stock. Royal Leaves Die-namics were cut from Green Room card stock. The sentiment was stamped on Sweet Tooth card stock with Black Licorice hybrid ink, cut in pieces, and popped up on foam.

On the inside, I stamped the PI image again, along with another sentiment from the set.

My second card involves water coloring with a stencil again :)

This card started with a Black Licorice card stock base. Next I water colored with Cherry Crisp dye ink through the new Staggered Hearts stencil on water color paper. I popped that up on foam mounting tape then added a strip of silver glitter paper. On a piece of Sweet Tooth card stock, I lightly stamped Burlap Background with Grout Gray dye ink on an angle, then adhered Love & Adore You Die-namics cut from Black Licorice card stock with a Quickie Glue Pen. I added a couple of Black Licorice card stock cut with Fishtail Flags STAX Die-namics and finished off with some sequins and clear gems. This card is also for this week’s Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge.  

On the inside, I stamped a heart and sentiment from Smitten With You, using Cherry Crisp dye ink and Black Licorice dye ink.
