Handmade With Love by Leica

Hi crafty friends. Today I am sharing a square-shaped card today, using the strawberry die from the Valentine Mug Addition Dies . This set is a perfect addition to the previously-released Winter Mug Dies .  I first cut a 5” square white cardstock and ink blended it through the Grid Stencil with Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Ink. I then cut the Wonky Stitched Square in patterned paper. You can also make a gingham pattern with the  Wide Stripes or the Pinstripe Stencil . I then stamped the sentiment in the center of the wonky square panel. I foam mounted it on the card panel and added jewels for added interest.  For the strawberries, I watercolored scraps of paper in red, green, brown, and white pearlescent. I then cut the strawberry from the Valentine Mug Addition. The swirls and little hearts are just too cute! For the pink dip, I used pink cardstock and added Liquid Pearls in White Opal.

Hello friends! Today I am sharing a Valentine box card die filled with the cutest PPP critters. Let’s get started! I first assembled the box card in pink cardstock. This box card die will be available on the PPP site soon! For the back and side panels, I stamped the love script repeatedly in Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide Ink.  Next, I stamped, colored, and cut the images from the Heart Critters Stamp Set and glued them on the inserts and front of the card. I used the following Copic Sketch Markers: Koala - C5/3/1, R00 Leopard - E35/34/33 Panda - N7/5/3 Golds - Y26/23/21 Reds - R29/27/24/22/20 For the sentiment on the front of the card, I stamped “be my valentine” and stamped and cut the love script.  That’s all for this box card. I can’t wait for the box card die to be released. I know that you will love it too!
