love-is.jpg  Good morning!  Today starts a weekend of marathon stamping.   I decided to start my run with the Inspiration Challenge.. to get me warmed up, so to speak.   It was a ‘dual’ inspiration this morning.  Not only is Stef’s inspiration piece… seen here… gorgeous and inspiring, but I was also inspired by a card made by imastampin (Karen) seen here.  I just *geeked* over Karen’s card as I have always loved vellum and rarely use it anymore.   She also got me with my favorite Stipple Rose.  Way to go, Karen!!

Here’s what I did.  I found this heart stamp by Technique Tuesday.. I don’t remember ever using it!  I stamped it on vellum and embossed in white.  Then I stamped it again on Soft Sky in Soft Sky and cut them both out.   I also used the same heart stamp to create my backgrounds.   I layered the heart image and attached it to my card with ribbon and dimensionals.

Here’s the deets:

Stamps:  Heart by Technique Tuesday, Sentiment by My Favorite Things (boho blossoms)

Colors: Soft Sky and GP White

Ink: Soft Sky, Versamark

Accessories: white brads, white organdy ribbon, circle punches, scissors, white embossing powder.

TFL!~
