I think I'm nearing the end of my Valentine's kick (I have NEVER made this many
Valentine's cards in my LIFE!) so here are the last few
lovey-dovey cards you'll see. (Hopefully....)
Becuase this week's sketch is sponsored by Papertrey Ink, I thought I would use
my favourite set by them, Polka Dot Basics, to create a little interest on the smokey paper.
The two hearts were cut with a Cuttlebug die. The black heart is felt, and the pink heart is PTI ink paper.
I like the cluster of "stuff" in the centre.. It's a nice focal point.
I did another card that I don't like that much:
I tried the Coredinations cardstock again.. I've tried it before and didn't like it. I tried it again...
And I still don't like it. :( Maybe it's because I'm starting to gravitate towards cleaner
papers and clean designs, I don't know... Maybe it's the colour I used.. I don't know..
What do you think?
Supplies for card #1: PTI products: Raspberry Fizz paper and twill, Smokey Shadow paper, Polka Dot Basic stamp set; Patterned Paper is KI Memories (i think!!); Making Memories pin, Basic Grey button, bulk felt from Michaels.
Supplies for card #2: Patterned paper by My Mind's Eye, PTI Pure Poppy paper, black/yellow cardstock by Coredinations; Ribbon by American Crafts; button and twine are generic items.

I love the papertrey card! The dots are hot as usual.
ReplyDeleteI really can't get happy about the cordinations either. I do love the design of your card and the red/yellow/black for valentines day is really fun. But I'm the same way, the cordinations paper always trips me up. (although I think your card is perfectly cute here)
lOve the black, hot pink and white Valentine. It's very modern!
ReplyDeleteReally love your first card...they are all very nice...and the cluster in the middle of the first one is really neat.
