Creative Inspiration
with a SketchHere's this month's sketch: And here's the project it inspired: The Sending Love Bundle isn't just for Valentine's! The cute die-cut envelopes can be used all year round to send a message of
love. The floral patterned paper from the Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper was cut (ensuring the pattern ran vertically) to make the first cardstock layer, and adhered to a Fresh Freesia folded card base. The sentiment, from the Sending Love Cling Stamp Set, was stamped on a Basic White Cardstock strip using Misty Moonlight Classic Stampin' Ink, and attached to the centre of the card using Stampin' dimensionals.
Using
the die from the coordinating Sending Love Dies, two envelope elements were die cut from Bubble Bath Cardstock, and a third was cut from Fresh Freesia Cardstock. The envelopes were folded and assembled using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. The solid single heart image from the Sending Love set was stamped in Fresh Freesia on the front of one of the Bubble Bath envelopes. That envelope, plus the Fresh Freesia envelope, were both adhered above the sentiment strip using liquid glue.
The
hollow hearts image (from the same stamp set) was stamped in Fresh Freesia on a strip of Basic White Cardstock, and the strip trimmed to allow it to be inserted into the remaining Bubble Bath envelope. That envelope was adhered underneath the sentiment strip, using Stampin' dimensionals. Shop my top product picks for this project: Don't forget you can bundle and save! Purchase the Sending Love Bundle and save 10%.
