Sent With Love & Our Blog Hop Winner!

Hello friends, Jennifer here to share a fun little card that I made with the "Sent With Love" set!  I haven't had this set long but it really has become one of my go-tos with it's cute collage image and wonderful sentiments!

I started off with a brown card base that I covered with some map paper and added some film reel ribbon to the left side.  I stamped the collage image onto some card stock, cut it out, and inked/distressed the edges.  I thought it needed some color so I added a few elements I colored in with my Copics.  I finished the card with an oversized ticket that I stamped with one of the sentiment and another of the images from the set.  

We want to thank all of you who participated

in our monthly themed blog hop.

There were so many beautiful creations from our

design team.  If you missed them, you can find

Hello friends, Jennifer here to share a card with you that I made with a "new to me" set - Sent With Love.  I've had my eye on this set for a while and just got it!  Couldn't wait to get it inky!  I just adore the images in this set and think they are perfect for masculine or feminine cards!  I started out making a card for my husband so I chose the chocolates and kraft colors.  

I layered a thick piece of burlap ribbon over the top of a panel of cream cardstock that I stamped with one of the sentiments in the set.  I then stamped the collage image onto some craft cardstock, cut it out, and distressed the edges.  When I placed it on the top of the ribbon, I thought the card needed more so I picked some blush paper roses and added them to the card.  I think the roses make the card a bit too feminine for my husband but perfect for my mom who moved to Oregon late last year and who I miss so much!

Thanks for visiting today and I hope you have a wonderful day!
