Love You Candy Jar with Carta Bella

Don't you just love the candy jar stamp from Northwoods Stamp? I do and thought it was just the perfect stamp for Valentine or anytime.... I used the Carta Bella "So Loved Stripe" and "Hugs and Kisses Border" papers from the Devoted collection to make my card with. I did multiply layering along with using my EK Success Chomper on a few of the corners prior to placing them on my card front.

Once I had my candy jar colored I fussy cut the jar out and placed it on pop dots along with wrapping red twine around the lid and the border that I had placed on the card.

I colored all of the hearts in with my Copic Markers and added the "Love You" from the paper strips that I fussy cut and placed on pop dots. I hope you try your had at coloring some of your stamped images, I always find it so relaxing. Hugs Pammejo

Graphic 45 Celebrate Card along with Northwood Hydrangea Stamp

Today is all waiting for spring as we sit patiently waiting for winter to pass by. It is cold, raining, snowing and sleeting here in Memphis - such a drastic change from the 70 degree weather yesterday. I think hydrangeas just shout spring is in the air so I used Northwoods Hydrangea Stamp and Rangers Distress Markers to create my card with. I used Graphic 45 Place in Time "March" paper and Cut Out paper was the perfect colors to go with my colored image. Once I got my image colored with my Tim Holtz distress markers and fussy cut out I added Ranger Distress Stickles to the leaves and a few of the flowers to help give the glistening affect that you see on hydrangeas. I added the fussy cut image and tag to the front of my card with pop dots over the Pink Paislee pleated ribbon. I hope you try using Graphic 45 Place in Time paper collection for more than just making a calendar with. ALSO.... I want to share with you I will be the Guest Designer for Graphic 45 on Jan 21st. I am over the moon with being invited. I sure hope you stop by. Hugs Pammejo
