Priceless

Thank you to all that were able to make it to the workshop on the 5th. It was fun to have you here and stmaping with me! For those of you that were unable to make it, this is the card we made... perfect for Valentine's Day.

First we layered Close to Cocoa on Whisper White for our card base. The heart is stamped in Pretty in Pink (Priceless IBC p.121), cut out and layered on to a chocolate chip circle (1-3/8" Circle Punch IBC p.185) which is layered on to a Pink Pirouette scallop circle (Scallop Circle Punch IBC p.184) Next we stamped the flourish (Priceless, IBC p.121) in Pretty in Pink onto Whisper White, then matted it with Chocolate Chip with scalloped edge (Scallop Edge Punch, IBC p.185) The card was all brought together with the strip of Pink Pirouette and Chocolate Chip grograin bow.

This card was fun to make and just in time to give to that special somone.

If you were unable to make it to this workshop, and would like me to let you know first hand about upcoming events, leave me a comment and I will let you know!
