Valentine's Wishes Across the Miles

Hello crafting friends. I hope you are all keeping well.

I'd like to share the Valentine's Day card I sent to my mom, all the way to Portugal.  My mom loves bunnies, so when I saw this stamp set from Art Impressions, I knew that I would put it to good use.

Not much to tell about this card, other than that I stamped and cut the bunny and the mailbox once, and the rest of the bits and bobs, multiple times so I would have enough to create my scene.  For the background I used oxide ink and a stencil to create the cloudy sky.  You can't tell from the photos, but all hearts and postage stamps have glassy accents for a little sparkle and dimension.  I didn't want to add a lot of bulk since it is being mailed overseas.

Crafty Ingredients:

Art Impressions Stamps & Dies set- Sending Love Cubbies

Precious Marieke - Grass Border

Cardz TV - Love Ya Stamp set - Sentiment

Hello everyone. Once again I'm joining the Die Cuttin' Divas as a guest Diva. I'm so excited and so honoured that Georgiana asked me to join them this week:-)

The challenge for this week is

~ Valentine Colors~
~ Pink, Red, and/or Purple ~


Although Pink is my favourite colour, my card today is all Red with some black and white thrown in there for good measure :-)

I made this Valentine card for my hubby, using a stamp and die set from Art Impressions called Mouse Slider. It comes with these cute mice and matching dies. I used the slider die to create the scene.

Isn't it adorable? The "Love" stamp comes with the Mouse Slider set. The Happy Valentine's Day stamp is from Cardz TV Happy Days set. Card stocks are all from Bazzill.  The hearts were all cut out with my Silhouette.  I love the fact that I could create them all different sizes but still have the same shaped heart. The polka dot paper is from Simple Stories called Snap! Color Vibe. I used an embossing folder from Crafter's Companion, called Heart Scrolls, on the slider to add some interest as the plain card stock was just too blah for my liking.  I left the inside blank so that I can write my own personal message.

I hope you enjoyed your visit today.
I would like to thank Georgiana and the Die Cuttin' Divas for having me as their guest diva for this week.  Please visit their blog for more inspiration and for the rules to join this fun challenge.

I wish you all a wonderful Valentine's Day.
May it be filled with love, chocolates and marshmallows.
