Valentine's Day with Flocking powder

I made this skinny card so I could let my sentiment hang off the edge. The sentiment stamp is by Close to My Heart which is on a Cricut label die and the happy letters are by Cosmo Cricket. The patterned papers are by My Mind's Eye and the heart ribbon by Heidi Grace for Fiskars. The heart in the middle of the twine is a button from my stash as well as the lace at the bottom. 

I die cut the hearts using my Cricut and then ran them through my Xyron to make them sticky. I used two separate colors of pink flocking powder on each of the heart die cuts. Once the flocking powder was on the heart I ran them through my Cuttlebug to make the flocking powder really stick to the adhesive on the heart. The two colors of pink flocking powder are by Inkadinkado. 

Thanks so much for looking.

Papertrey Ink Set-for a boy

I made this fun set of card and matching envelope for the challenge at Papertrey Ink. The circle stamps along with the sentiment and polka dot paper are all by Papertrey Ink. 

The background of my card is powdered chalk {Lime} and paint both by Stamp N Plus mixed together and sponged over a The Crafter's Workshop stencil. Love the two together with stencils. I've made a ton of backgrounds just playing with different colors. Doing this prep work makes me think I need more stencils:)

The name stamp is from a dollar store that I picked up soon after he was born almost 12 years ago. His birthday is next week and I think he will like this set I made just for him.

The border punch is by Fiskars. It's one of my favorites for male cards. Not too frilly. I used Stampin Up ink, Hero Arts black ink and Hero Arts Shadow inks on my card. 

Thanks for looking.
