Valentine card with die cut letters+ Video

Hi!

I Hope that you all are well! Todays weather is cold, snow and wind…..yuck. Sometimes I really wish we lived somewhere warmer. On days like this, not even my dog wants to go outside…..

But, if your not outside, one can stay inside crafting, so thats what I’ve been up to today. Making a card and a video. 🙂 I used word dies from Paper Smooches, I love word dies, I can’t get enough of them! If you would like to know how I made this card, take a look at the video, I hope you like it!

Take care!

Hi!

Today I made a card and let me tell you, I struggled to get this one together…lol… The outcome is NOTHING like the original idea I had in my head when I started… Does that ever happen when you craft? 🙂

If you didn’t know, I live in the cold dark north and it’s snowing today, so this card is actually inspired by the weather. ( To be honest there is no penguins where I live even though it’s very cold…lol… )

I thought it might look fun if the penguins looked like they’ve changed places in each photo. I stamped with first and second generation to create the background. I colored the adorable penguins from Lawn Fawn with copics and coated them with some Wink of Stella. The igloo in the background is also stamped with second generation to give it a soft look and it’s shaded with copics. Honestly, this card is a little bit too busy for my taste, but I still think the penguins are the cutest ever.

Thank you SO MUCH for stopping by and I hope that you will have an amazing week!

( What looks like white spots in the photo is actually Wink of Stella glitter )
