This week's Featured Stamper is NEEDMORESPACE (don't we all!) aka Sue Drees. Congrats and I'm excited to be able to upload a card during your actual week!
It reminded me of a beautiful collage heart stamp I have that I don't use often enough, so that became the basis of my card. I used some pink patterned paper over a kraft card base, then layered some red patterned paper on cream card stock. Before attaching it, I added some pink lace tape on either side so that the edges would be under the cream and red strip. Love that tone-on-tone with the lace on Sue's card so I had to get that in!
I put that aside to make the heart focal image. I stamped it in dark brown ink onto cream cardstock and colored it with chalk pastels using q-tips. I only have a set of 12 so there's no pink; I lightly colored the heart with red and then used white pastel to lighten it up. There is a flower as part of the stamped image but I decided after I colored everything that I wanted more dimension, so now it's under the Prima flower, which I attached with a flower shaped brad. Then I used foam tape to attach the whole think to the card and finished with the sentiment.
Congrats again to Sue, hope it's been a great week! TFL!
