Welcome to Loni's Life and the VC Rocks Have a Heart Blog Hop.
If you're on the tour, then you've just come from Christine's All Hands and Heart.
If you are starting here at my blog, I'm actually the last stop on the tour, but you can start at the top of the hop here and continue hopping until you come full circle back to my blog.
My project is an oldie but a goodie...
You can't see it in the scan very well; but the real red cardstock is stamped with hearts & swirls background in real red.
Stamps: Hearts & Swirls Background; Loving Hearts; Brushstroke Alphabet; Handmade I/II or personalized
Ink: Real Red classic
Paper : Real Red 8.5 x 5.5; Ballet Blue 1 7/8 x 5; US Whisper White enough to punch 3, 1 3/8" squares; Pixie Pink to punch 3, 1 1/4" squares
Accessories: Red gingham ribbon; snail adhesive; 1 3/8" punch; 1 1/4" punch; *brayer optional (to use to show background stamp where you ink up the stamp with the pad then lay the cardstock on top of the inked background stamp; then use the brayer on the cardstock to transfer the ink from the stamp to the card stock- or also to show how you can use a brayer to ink up a background stamp).
1- Punch 3 squares of US Whisper White using 1 1/4 inch punch; stamp in real red with I, heart image, and U
2- Punch 3 squares of pixie pink using 1 3/8 inch punch; layer whisper white on pixie pink
3- layer pixie pink on the ballet blue and set aside
4- fold 8.5 x 5.5 real red to form card base; stamp with hearts & swirls background in real red
5- layer ballet blue on real red
6- finish card with gingham red bow & stamp reverse with Handmade stamp
