He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not

OK... so that's not what I ended up using as the sentiment of this card, but that's what I was thinking when I created this flower.
Love You Always card:I used the Pretty Petals stamp set by Kitchen Sink Stamps to create this card. I have to say... it's a DREAM to use. It's so easy to make a flower, and make it even! Being clear, you can see exactly where it needs to be positioned. Perfect outcome on the first try!


I did each petal separately so I could alternate the colors, but if you wanted to create the flower on your acrylic block and stamp at one time, you could do that too. I do have one tip for you on the sentiment. I used the Never a Loss 4 Words set. I placed the words face down on the cardstock, aligning them where I wanted them. When everything was in place, I pressed my block on top of them and gently lifted. The words stuck to the block, I inked and viewed where I wanted to put them. Perfect.
This card was SO quick for that very reason.

Thanks for stopping by,
Lisa

  3. So I need to understand why it is that you bloggers are all geniuses in addition to being creative monsters? It is just not fair to the rest of us! Your card is really --Hmm the adjective to use -- cute, fun, lively all those and more. And the genius part -- who would have thought to lay those clear words down and use the acrylic to pick it up? You did! thanks for the great tip!
