Day 2 of Papertrey Ink 5th Anniversary

Papertrey ink is celebrating their 5th anniversary and they are have a HUGE party over Nicole's blog. There are contest and prizes. Today's challenge is to use their printable freebies to create a project. Here is my take.

Love this cute toaster and the heart toast. CUTE~ Perfect for a Valentine's day project. I decide to submit to this week's Create Blog challenge: Valentine card.

I print the image on white cardstock. Die cut the image with Papertrey Ink Mat Stack 4 die and color the image with Copic. Trim a pattern paper panel, adhere on card base and tie a ribbon. Die cut 4 blocks using Alpha-blocks die and spell LOVE using Alpha-blocks stamp set. Then add Martha Stewart glitter and glossy accent on the hearts.
Here is the close look of the glossy accent.

Have a good day.

CREATE Blog challenge

Hi, I have a quick post today. Just want to share a card I made for CREATE Blog challenge: 3 flowers, 2 butterflies and 1 bird. FUN~ You have until tomorrow to submit your card.

Here is my card. I clear emboss the vine background on grey cardsotck. Punch edger from white cardstock and trim a thin strip from yellow cardstock. Adhere together and adhere on card.
Then I die cut my bird using my Cricut and stamp the beautiful flower from Hero Arts Lauderdale Flowe stamp set in white ink. (Yes, I am officially a Cricut owner.) Adhere two birds and pop off the bird with faom tape on card base.
