OSAT Blog Hop - All You Need is Love

February 09, 2017

Hello, and welcome back! I'm here today with the next One Stamp at a Time Blog Hop. This month our theme of "All You Need is Love" is celebrating love, weddings and all themes of the heart! Today I have some simple but non-traditional Valentine's note cards which can all be stored or gifted in the included glassine gift bag.

I love our Whisper White Note Cards & Envelopes. The cards are made from the thick Whisper White Cardstock, and they're the perfect size (3 1/2" x 5") to make a quick set of cards for yourself or as a gift. And they come with matching envelopes! I started by stamping the 5 images onto Watercolor Paper with the Archival Basic Black Ink, and then water-colored each image with Aqua Painters and inks in Pool Party, Peekaboo Peach, Flirty Flamingo, Watermelon Wonder and Smoky Slate.

For the gift bag, I die cut the image with the Cheerful Tags Framelits Dies, and cut off a portion of it. The greeting was selectively inked from two different greetings in the Perfect Mix Stamp Set. All the images and greetings on the focal points are from this set. I attached the tag with Pool Party 3/8" (1 Cm) Stitched Satin Ribbon, and added a heart from the 2016-2018 In Color Enamel Shapes.

For each card, I started by stamping the background using different stamps from the Timeless Textures Clear-Mount Stamp Set. This card has Pool Party ink for the larger texture, and Smoky Slate for the small ink splotch stamp. I completed the card with Watermelon Wonder tape from the Tasty Treats Designer Washi Tape, Basic Black Metallic Thread and 2016-2018 In Color Enamel Shapes. I also stamped the texture on the flap of the coordinating envelope.

This card background has Watermelon Wonder and Smoky Slate in the background. It's completed with the Pool Party hearts from the Subtles Enamel Shapes, Basic Black Metallic Thread and the Peekaboo Peach from the Tasty Treats Designer Washi Tape.

This background is in Peekaboo Peach and Smoky Slate. Oh, I also used the circle and oval dies from the Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies to cut out the water-colored focal images.

The background here is Flirty Flamingo and Smoky Slate. I decided to color a cute little died egg in this dozen to add to the sentiment!

Well, that's all for me today, but you'll want to move on to my friend Jeanna, your next stop on the hop! I'm sure you're going to love the variety of projects that we're sharing this month, so circle all the way around! Thanks for stopping by.
