Today’s card is just a quick and simple one that combines two recent Splitcoaststampers Clean & Simple challenges. Last week they had a sketch to follow, and this week the challenge was to use sponging as a technique. I decided to make another card for the Operation Write Home special mission and this is what I ended up with.
I don’t often use heart shapes on cards, so I don’t feel like I can justify the purchase of the heart-shaped Nestabilities dies set. I have a few Sizzix dies but they’re all pretty small. So for the heart on this card, I traced around one of my cookie cutters and cut it out with my trusty Cutterbee scissors.
Supplies:
Stamps: So Much Love (Lizzie Anne Designs)
Cardstock: So Saffron, Whisper White (Stampin’ Up)
Ink: Onyx Black (VersaFine); Rose Red (SU)
Other: So Saffron and Rose Red grosgrain ribbon (SU); sponge; Premier colored pencils (Prismacolor); odorless mineral spirits (Houston Arts)
