I Love You THIS Much
Hi readers! Happy Sunday to you! Please join me in welcoming back our lovely guest designer, Lucy Abrams! Today, she took a unique take on our cute little teddy bear from Abby’s Spring Showers stamp set, and added a fun sentiment from the Stamp and Cut Arrow Messages from Hero Arts. Read on for more tips and tricks, and enjoy!
Hello. It’s Lucy Abrams here today with a clean and simple card that’s perfect for a loved one. To create this card, I first added a wash of aqua watercolor to some water-colour cardstock and allowed it to dry. Next, I stamped the lovely little bear from Abby’s Spring Showers onto the watercolor card and cut it out.
I took some Neenah white cardstock and trimmed to 5 1/2 x 3 3/4″, then stamped the arrow and sentiment from Hero Arts’ Stamp and Cut Arrow Messages set. I flicked the card stock with some of the same aqua watercolor and set it aside to dry.
While waiting, I stamped the bear and a trio of hearts onto some more Neenah cardstock. I sponged these with Coral Reef Hybrid Ink then cut them out. I added the tiny heart to the aqua bear, then adhered everything to the card. Some tiny gold Pretty Pink Posh sequins and a strip of striped Pinkfresh Studio washi completed the card. Thanks so much for stopping by. See you again soon.
