Good morning! So glad you could stop by and visit for a bit! Today I have a project based on a sketch found at Tuesday Morning Sketches.
I needed a 40th anniversary card and while doing color research, found out ruby red is the traditional color for your 40th! Who knew? So with a sketch and a color scheme in mind, I went to work.
I created a ruby red card stock base with a layer of white and a die cut red decorative layer. I stamped my image in black and colored each heart with my trusty Copics. I added a bit of glitter glue to each heart for shine. After cutting out my image, I matted it with red CS also and added it to my card base. You know how I love flowers, right? Well... I had to add a few on the bottom corner! ;-) A few die cut and paper punched sprigs with lush roses fit the bill.
I didn't stop there! I used a couple of Our Daily Bread Designs recent stamp releases to embellish the inside along with a couple of darling die cut birds. I can't wait to present this to the lovely couple! I hope you like it and as always thanks for stopping by!
