With All My Heart - Valentine's Day Card in Purple

on



Hi everyone and happy Sunday :)

Today I am sharing a purple Valentine's Day card *gasp*

Oh my word! Purple is absolutely so not my color to create with! I always struggle when creating with this color.

Yes, purple can look beautiful! I see a lot of gorgeous cards around using this color but still, it is one of my personal biggest challenges to use this color *lol*

But that's the meaning of a challenge, right? To dare yourself to do something, you usually would not do! Therefore I decided to take the challenge of the current CAS*ology Challenge and create a card with purple *lol*



As always, you can find the step-by-step instructions and a complete list of supplies below this post in the grey boxes :)






Thank you so much for stopping by today and I hope to see you here on my blog again, soon :)

Sylvia xx


    Instructions
  • create a top folded 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" card base from 4 1/4" x 11" white cardstock and round lower right corner
  • open the card base and place the heart die ("Heart Board Fri-Dies")  in the upper left corner of your card front -affix with Washi tape or any other removable tape- and run through die cutting machine
  • stamp heart ("Cupid's Arrows") with Memento Lulu Lavender onto inside of the card, that it can be seen through the die cut heart window
  • stamp "I Love You" ("Sands of Time") with Memento Lilac Posies onto card front besides heart window
  • stamp sentiment arrow ("Cupid's Arrows") with Memento Lilac Posies onto scrap piece of white cardstock and die cut with co-ordinating die ("Heart Board Fri-Dies")
  • mount arrow to card front using dimensional foam pads
  • wrap around sheer ribbon and tie into bow
  • embellish with clear and purple rhinestones

    I am so glad you overcame your struggle with purple to play along with CASology this week. Your soft shade of purple hearts and the window cut out are just fantastic.
