Hi There!
It's Jessica today, popping in to share two cards with you that I made with a couple of stamps Valentine Wishes and a swirl from the Circle It stamp set.
For my first card, I wanted to have lots of color on the sweet little girl image, so I used a variety of Copic markers and then as luck would have it, found this patterned paper from one of My Mind's Eye paper packs... whew! I usually pick out the papers first before coloring, but this time I colored the image first.
I used some more papers from My Mind's Eye for my second card - adding a variety of textures with the die cut, ribbon, sewing, embossing, etc. The doily matches the little girl's dress - it shows up more purple than it is in the photos. After I embossed the card front, I rubbed some white craft ink over it to soften and highlight it a bit. The sentiment die cut is cut from one of the papers included in the My Mind's Eye paper pack.
Here's the two stamp sets I used on my cards today:
Have a great day!
