This week’s challenge is all about love and I just LOVE this combination of stencilled background using the Hearts stencil and a bold, black, graphic sentiment.  I’ve always loved this combo.  The touches of gold add a little drama too – can’t go wrong with a bit of gold I say!!  I used my Clarity brushes with Spun Sugar and Picked Raspberry Distress inks – these are amazing things – if you haven’t tried them I’d highly recommend them!  I was having so much fun I thought I’d carry on and whip up a second card while I was at it!

Avery Elle … Letter Balloons

Hey there.  I’m up on the Avery Elle Blog today with a card I created using the Letter Balloons from the Winter Release.  I made this sparkly Happy New Year card by die-cutting the letters and numbers (using the Number Balloon dies) from glitter card.  The confetti is made using the Finished Frames set.  I love these dies for making personalised cards too – so useful!

Hope you enjoy the rest of the week.  All products used can be found at Avery Elle.

I made a cute and simple 4-bar sized card this week – I often forget there are other sizes than A2!!  I heat embossed the Texture With Hearts Cling Stamp in white and then used 3 differnet shades of pink Zig Clean Colour Marker as a wash with water to give a pretty ombre effect. I then die cut the panel using the Dotted Rectangles dies from Avery Elle. To add a bit of punch I stamped the Congrats sentiment from Label Love from Atlenew in black.
