This card is kinda a mistake. I wasn't sure what I wanted but I know I wanted the white stamped word LOVE to be more vibrant. I guess I didn't ink up the stamp well enough or it was too dry for the embossing powder to stick to. But after I finished it, I liked it because it looked like a chalk board. The pink piece running along the bottom had the words love over and over and I used Stickles on it to make it stand out. I then placed the Prima flowers along what I thought would be the ledge of the chalk board.
The over sized eyelets are those that came with the Crop-i-dile. Now if you don't have one of these, you are really missing out because you don't make a sound using one! I craft at 2 or 3 AM and I am not allowed to make noise as hubby is up at 4 for work. I only went thru the top layer and then threaded thru my two tones pink ribbon and tied it in what I think is a decent bow. All of this was layered on a simple piece of pink card stock. If I had wanted a bit more shimmer, I would have used that new Bling from Bazzill but this worked nicely. I just love how pink and black go so well together. I need to fix the tip on my Stickles bottle tho because it's bent and too much is coming out when I squeeze.
This card would be nice for any time you want to say something nice to someone. It was fast and easy and all made with scraps from my paper bins.
That looks very cute, Jan!
