When I saw the latest inspiration photo for Fusion's card challenge, I was excited to enter because I remembered that I had some papers in my stash that would work perfectly with this.  It also gave me a chance to work with this color palette, which I had never used before.  I think this was the quickest card I ever made.

I decided to combine the photo and the sketch.  I used Stampin' Up soft pink to stamp flowers on the face of the card.  Then I cut different size rectangle pieces of patterned paper and adhered them to the card, stamped my sentiment and added the pretty pink butterflies.  The butterflies make me wish Spring was here!

Putting My Heart into It!


So cute and just in time for Valentine's Day, these decorated heart-shaped cookies caught my eye.  I love the tiny floral decorations.  They look so yummy!  Time to get out my heart stamps and play along with The Card Concept #48 challenge.



First, I used a 1 1/2" punch to cut tan squares.  Then I used a 1 1/4" punch to cut squares in light, medium, and dark pink.  Couldn't wait to open my Inkadinkado clear heart stamps and start embossing hearts on each pink square.  Attached the pink and tan squares together.  Used my Stampin' Up Loads of Love for the sentiment and found a tiny flower stamp that I embossed with red, cut out and attached.  I think it turned out sweet!
  

Also entered the Double D challenge when I saw their "Pretty Pink Hearts" inspiration photo.
