Hi Everyone,
I'm back today featuring two cards using stamps from DRS Designs. This first card was made for the current challenge a the DRS Designs blog, which is SNOWFLAKES. Not only does this Snowman in a Box have snowflakes, but I also used the Interlocking Snow stamp for my background. It's pretty subtle, I just did a stamping job in Versamark Dazzle, but in real life it does have a small bit of sparkle. The One Line Happy Thoughts sentiment was from the last release. I know this card is pretty simple, but it is one of my favorite layouts for this type of stamp :) Also, it's cute and doesn't take a million years to make!
This next stamp is from the new release at DRS Designs. You can see them all by clicking here. The ever adorable Leonard the Pig is making an appearance in this Rose Offering stamp. I knew I had to pair it with the punny Valenswine's Day sentiment and I used the Easy Dot background and Interlocking Hearts to make my coordinating papers.
I still had a bit of this printed heart ribbon, which ended up being the perfect amount for this card and I added 3 little paper hearts for embellishment. The only thing that's unusual about this "Karin" card, is that it's completely flat and has no glitter. I know. Shocking! LOL! It would make a great card for OWH. I'll have to remember it for next year, since I think the deadline has passed.
Have you made any Valentine's yet? No time like the present to get started :)
Have a great day!
