TE Blast From the Past: Love Style

Hi friends!

I'm back today with a card I made for the January Blast from the Past Blog Hop for Taylored Expressions. The theme for this month is L O V E! I went with sugary sweet love and used the For the Love of Cupcakes stamp set and some glitter (it is an addiction).


I stamped the main image two times. I diecut the first image using a circle die, sponged the edges with Antique Linen Distress Ink, added a bit of shadow using the W1 Copic marker and finished by dotting the edge with Bisque Liquid Pearls. I colored the cup cakes from the second image and trimmed. After popping the cutout images over the first with foam dimensionals I accented with Glossy Accents and a touch of Dazzling Diamonds glitter. Many of the ingredients used on this card are from the Valentine Project Pantry Kit (most of the cardstock, the designer paper, brads and ribbon).
