This week we’re having some fun with the new bundle by Stampin’ Up! called Hugs for Love. This bundle includes a stamp set and coordinating label punch. And while you can certainly get a great start on Valetines with this bundle, it’s versatile enough to create designs for all sorts of occasions.
Today, we’re taking a more traditional approach with the design elements and color palette by making a card that feels very Valentine-y. For this card, we’re pairing our featured bundle with the Marbled Elegance pattern paper.
We get started today with a card base of Cherry Cobbler cardstock. Our Marbled Elegance paper is matted with gold mercury vellum, which really accentuates the lovely gold foiling in our patterned paper. The sentiment from Hugs for Love is stamped in Real Red, while the heart accents are stamped in Pretty in Pink and the decorative border is stamped in Cherry Cobbler. The sentiment panel is then cut with the coordinating punch and adhered over a bow of gold trim using dimensionals. We finish things off by scattering varying sizes of gold foil hearts on and around the sentiment panel.
This is such a simple design that can be replicated quickly. And a simple swap of the sentiment makes this is a great layout for all occasions.
Tomorrow we’re smiling with the fairies. I hope you’ll drop in!
