Shopping Our Stash: Hearts On Fire - Wrap Card

Hi, Crafty Makers!

This week's Hearts on Fire challenge at Shopping Our Stash presents a rare opportunity to create a project (not related to Valentine's Day) using one of the five hundred or so heart shaped dies and/or stamps languishing in your stash.  Of course, if you simply cannot help yourself, a Valentine project will work!

A Kraft Heart Themed Wrap Card

Once again, my love of Kraft card stock is on full display.  I really wish the "Brush of Stella™" on the hearts and the score lines had photographed better.  All that glitter gives the card a more elegant feel. 

Again, so much of the sparkly detail is lost in this photo.  

The accents show up better in the video (see below).

You can see a tiny bit of the Stella glow in this one.

I added the Kraft card layer behind the red layer AFTER I had completed and published the video.  It is amazing how that one small change made such a big difference in the project's presentation.

Shopping Our Stash Weekly Challenge: Leaf It To Me - Use Leaves on Your Project

Hello, Happy Makers!

The challenge at Shopping Our Stash this week encourages makers to create a project that features "Leaves." 

I love the wrap cards because you can use almost any large stamp or die to produce a beautiful design.

I used one of the trimmed away flowers as an embellishment for my small sentiment.  I love all the white space!

Another great feature of style is the generous white space.  You can write a short letter.  I added a sentiment on the inside but it could easily be left blank.

 This image is not as "leafy" as the one above but I thought it would make a cool wrap card!   I added Glossy Accents™ to all the flowers and a little Wink of Stella™ to the pails.

I was able to use a large sentiment stamp on this one!

Thanks for visiting!

  I hope to see your work in our challenge.

HUGZ!
