Hooray For Surprises Dies Archives - Libby Fens, Stampin' Up! Demonstrator

Welcome stampers!

Thank you for joining us for our weekly Create with Stamping Friends Saturday blog hop!

Our theme this week is the spotlight technique!

I am glad! I haven’t done this technique in a long time! It was fun to revisit it. I did mine with a bit of a twist –

Instead of a circle, I used a heart!

I stamped the flower grouping in Sweet Sorbet on Basic White and set it aside. I stamped the flower grouping again in Black Memento on Sweet Sorbet. I figured out where I wanted the heart to be cut and cut it.

I layered the die cut heart over the same part on the initial flower grouping. It is real easy to do!

The base and sentiment of Pebbled Path created a bit of a masculine touch to the card. This way, I can use it for whoever in the future!

Go forward to check out Melissa Davies, and back to Cindy Elam. I know they’ll have some great ideas for us!

We will see you next week with more great inspirations in card making!

Welcome stampers!

Thank you for joining us for our weekly Create with Connie and Mary Saturday blog hop!

Our theme this week is Valentine cards!

We have some of the best Sale-a-bration Designer Series Paper this time around. For instance, the Most Adored Designer Series Paper. I just have to show off both sides –

…and opened –

Very nice, right?

I just love it! To make the heart opening on the front, I used the Hooray for Surprises Dies. After I made the cut, I assembled the card and stamped the sentiment through the heart as there is plenty of room to do so!

I trimmed the Designer Series Paper and the leftover strip, I placed on the inside of the card.

The heart that was left from the front, I used as an envelope seal! How cool is that? Either side would work nicely and can be seen from open or closed!

The Flirty Flamingo double bow on the front ties in the colors. This card would be suitable for the guys in your life too! Wouldn’t you agree?
