You Warm My Heart

Happy Monday! Another new week awaits us - and this being Family Day here in Alberta, I am taking full advantage of the day off work :) I spent some time doing much needed house work, some of my bookkeeping course and fun in the craft room - cyber crafting with my bestie - Leanne! It is very cold again today (-32C with a wind chill of -34C brrr!) so another great day to stay inside and maybe do some more crafting?! LOL...

I am up on the Coffee Loving Cardmakers Blog today with this card - it was so fun to create using my stamps from Jane's Doodles. These little to-go cups are just so darling and you can color them up in any color combo you'd like. I stamped them numerous times onto Xpress It! Copic paper, colored them and then cut the panel out with my wonky stitched rectangle die from Craftin' Desert Divas. 

I then layered it on black and teal, added the sentiment strip and finished it all off by adding glossy accents to all the hearts. CUTE!!! 

 

I am entering my card into the following challenges:



the card Concept 108 - Love is in the Air



STAMPlorations - Hearts/Sketch (I used the hearts portion)
Simply Create Too - Hearts 
LeAnns World 101 - Anything Goes
