I Love You More

Hello Stamping Friends!

I have a fun and simple card to share with you today!

The phrase "I Love You More!" is said in our household very often!  So with Valentine's Day and my hubby and my Anniversary right around the corner, I found it very fitting to create this card for him for one of the occasions!!

That's why I love the Big Wishes II set from Inspired By Stamping!!

Just the sentiment and some die cut hearts, in my opinion make a big statement!

So simple, yet so elegant and so much meaning behind it!!

 Have a wonderful day!

One of my most favorite holiday's of the year to make cards for!

So pretty!

Vintage Rose

Hello Stamping Friends!

Happy Friday!

I'm on the Inspired By Stamping Blog today, using one of this month's new stamp sets!!

I LOVE the new Vintage Roses set!

Then again I LOVE roses, so it's no surprise!

I thought for my card today I would try the Paper Piecing Technique on the roses, something I haven't done in a long time!  I just used my Copics to color the leaves.

I stamped the roses a few times on my patterned paper and then cut them out in different sizes to layer them with pop dots to give them a "real" look!

I just love the beautiful Thank You sentiment in this set!
