The Card Concept has a new challenge, Be My Valentine.
I have some inspiration for you, using the Greetery's newest release.
All products listed at the end of this post.


I used colors, theme, and elements from our inspiration photo. Pretty much
the whole photo inspired my Valentine card.


There aren't any flowers in the photo, but there is some greenery. I just couldn't
resist adding the sweet 2 step florals from Betsy's set.


I first stamped the background with Windowpane Plaid Background before stenciling
hearts from Poppystamps' Confetti Heart Plate. I made a stencil from the die plate,
before spraying it with Pixie Repositional Spray,  something I learned from
watching Betsy's video. 


The envelope is popped up with foam.

There are so many ways to be inspired from the photo, and our designers
have plenty of inspiration for you on the CC blog. 
Play along for a chance to win and be our guest designer!



Have a great and crafty week!

Love card


We have a new challenge at the Card Concept, Cozy Cabin.


I created a Wedding or Anniversary card with Poppystamps' Simple Leaf Heart Split Border.
It's a beautiful subtle and simple die that I let shine using a wood embossing folder for the 
background.


The wedding topper in the background is from parents' wedding cake. My mom kept
it in a cabinet for years, quietly watching over the other knick knacks on the shelves.
When she was failing, she asked if I'd like to have it. Of all she passed on to me, this
sweet piece of her life of 49 years with my dad is my dearest treasure.   


Poppystamps' Valentine release is in the shop now, and this love with it's flourish tail
is among my favorites! 

The Card Concept Challenge runs for 2 weeks, and we love seeing what
inspires you from the photo.


I used the wood to inspire my Clean and Layered card. But there are many things
you could use for inspiration.
Our designers have lots more inspiration for you.
