Strong of Heart

Stampin' Up! always has a special stamp set that is dedicated to a cause, this time around the Strong of Heart stamp set is being used to support heart health.  For each stamp set that is purchased, Stampin' Up! will donate $3 to support heart health.

I decided to used a piece of the cork sheets in the background of this card along with a strip of Soft Sea Foam embossed with the Merry Melody folder. The flowers and leaves on the heart image are colored in with Polished Pink and Just Jade markers.

Supplies:

Strong of Heart

Memento Black, Soft Succulent ink

Polished Pink and Just Jade markers

Crumb Cake, Soft Sea Foam, Purple Posy, Basic White card stock

Cork Sheets

Merry Melody folder

I had to sneak this one in before the stamp set I used is unavailable so I am sending out two posts today. 

 

I will fully admit that I am not the most organized scrapbooker and I think it comes from the fact that I started when my kids were a few years old and tried to go backwards and forwards with and get it all in.  That being said, sometimes I scrap pictures more than once, LOL!  I do have separate books for each of my children so that is generally not a big deal, but since my sister doesn't scrapbook I can also pass along some pages with duplicate pictures if I need to :)

 

I wanted to focus on the fun picture of my nieces on this layout and just added some colorful accents around it.

 

The stamped images come from Peachy Keen (Occasions catalog) and I have used the On Film Framelits for a few of the pieces as well as the Ovals Framelits for the title piece.

 

More of that thick Strawberry Slush baker's twine, some Sale-a-bration cork adhesive pieces and My Paper Pumpkin kit baker's twine...

 

Some delicate details lace tape, basic rhinestones and In Color boutique details finish out the elements.

Tool Shed

It is a little early for Father's Day, but I thought I would share this card I made for a customer of mine.  I used the Tool Shed background stamp and added some cork and vintage trinkets between that image and the sentiment.

The colors are Marina Mist, Soft Suede and Very Vanilla.
