Sarn on Sunday!

Hi Playmates

I have a card full of hearts for today's homework (plus an extra piece of homework at the end of this post!).

5" x 5" card base

Showing the matching card and envelope

My white snippets - some liberally
applied with Paper Artsy Magenta Infusions.

1. I cut an A4 piece of 300 gsm white card to measure 10" x 5", then scored and folded it in half to make a 5" x 5" card base.
2. I had been messing about with Magenta PaperArtsy Infusions powder - testing it out on a few white snippets (see above photo). One of the experimental 4" square snippets was mounted onto a 4¼" square of black card, which was in turn stuck to the card front with double sided tape.
3. Inspired by Asia Marquet's video, I had a go at doodling my own lovehearts, which I cut out and stuck to the card front with foam pads.
4. I put a sentiment on the inside, leaving the card front to speak for itself!
5. A matching envelope was made by adding another of the Infusions snippet strips and a heart to the envelope front.

And while I was at it, I made another anniversary card using up one of the other pink snippets shown in the picture above, along with a heart that was punched from a black snippet of card and another doodled heart. On this card, I added extra doodling around the border and a Clearly Besotted anniversary sentiment to the card front.

OLC Sympathy Card

Hi Friends

Today's make is a one layer sympathy card. Thankfully it wasn't required at the time I made it, but I have since had need of it! Sigh!

5" x 5" card.

The background stamp (from Stampin' Up!'s "Work of Art" set) was inked up with DOX Speckled Egg and stamped three times without re-inking in between. I used VFC Twilight ink for the Stampin' Up! flower and the Clearly Besotted sentiment.
