Up first is a shaker card using the new cover up plate, & a couple of the Valentine's themed stamps. Check it out!
I love this cover up plate, and I've added foam adhesive in the middle of it so that the sequins stay on the top & at the bottom as well! I've combined two of the new stamps sets to create the heat embossed sentiment.
Card Challenges:
- Sketch Saturday #343
- Color Throwdown #324 - red, black, white
- The Pink Elephant #281 - shaker technique
For my next card, I created a Valentine using the chalkboard technique...and I LOVE how it turned out!
I've used lots of layers & dimension on this one...the diecut banners are probably my favorite part!!
