Something Sweet Valentine Card 1

I wanted to pull out this Something Sweet stamp set and do a Valentine's card with it.  I used this same layout on a card last year and I really liked how it looked.  I used Crystal Effects over the globe part to give it the 'glass' effect.  This set is so fun to use!  Check back next week for a card with the same design but using the sweet treat cups!  Thanks for looking!!

Something Sweet Card

I created this card for the How Sweet it Is challenge over at http://craftspotbykimberly.blogspot.com/.  The challenge was to use some sweet treat on your project.  I haven't used this stamp set in a very long time so I thought I would give it a try!

 

I wanted to use seam binding that matched my project, but since the seam binding does not come in the new Lucky Limeade color, I created my own.   I placed the binding directly onto my ink pad and then I used a sponge to hold it on the top. I pulled the seam binding between the pad and sponge to apply the color.  After it dried, I attached it to my card.

When I was finished stamping the project, I applied crystal effects to the entire globe portion of the card.  I did use black craft ink and black embossing powder for the globe, so it helped keep the crystal effects inside.

I really enjoyed making this project and I hope you have enjoyed viewing it!  Thanks for looking!
