Love You
I’ve been putting off cleaning out my stamp draw for some time now, because every time I delve into it I find a million stamps that I’ve not used in a while and get a sudden flood of ideas for cards and I can never make them quick enough! So taking the plunge into the unknown that is my ever growing collection of stamps, I found a Sugar Nellie stamp that I had bought from a stamp expo in Doncaster. It was time to clear my desk and get to work – see what you think!
With this card I wanted to do a shabby chic look, I have never really been able to pull it off but I think that this was a fairly good go at it. To start I got out some card stock for my stamp and coloured her in with Pro Markers.
After inking the edges I got out a few die cuts that have been sat in a box unloved, I also grabbed a couple of buttons and some twine. I arranged everything on some backing card to make sure the whole lot was in the right place before sticking everything down. To finish off the card with a sentiment I inked the edges of some card, rounded the corners and stamped “love you”. I wanted the sentiment to look like a frame using some brads I pinned that down.
Hope you guys like it!
Sam
