Valentine Love Potion

I decided I needed a break from wintry cards for a bit so I decided to make a Valentine's Day card. I just got this new DP when my sister, daughter and I took a road trip up to NH on Saturday to by some new Copics at a great store in Dover, NH. I seem to have lots of Valentine things that I bought and haven't used yet. This is one of the cute stamps from Kraftin' Kimmies that I got for Christmas, I just love the idea of the love potion. I just got the Spellbinder heart nesties and couldn't wait to use them. Everything just seemed to fall into place when making this card!

There was lots of challenges that would fit this card so here they are

Crazy For Challenges C4C20-This challenge had the great sketch that I used for this card, it was great because it left a lot of room for my own interpretation.
Allsorts Challenge Week 35-The challenge this week is to use the colors brown and pink, I love these colors together!
One Stop Craft Challenge 63-They asked us to use fancy edges or corners. I used both on my card and both with a heart theme to them.
Polka Doodles week 2-This challenge is all about love and what says love better that a love potion like this one in the image!
Crafty Creations Challenge 51-The challenge this week is Valentines or love. I think this cute image makes a great Valentine and will also put a smile on a face. Who wouldn't like a bottle of love potion.
Quixotic Challenge #10-My old stamp is the Be Mine I used on the heart. I have had this stamp for many, many years. It is part of a Rubber Stamp Tapestry set. It is the perfect size and saying for a Valentine card so I use it often on my Valentine cards.
Creative Card Crew Challenge 43-The challenge is punch it. I love punches so this was an easy challenge. I used a Paper Shaper corner punch and a MS heart border punch.
Spoon Full of Sugar Challenge 87-This challenge this week is to use lots of layers. I love using layers on my card the more the better! Fun challenge to do.
Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp Challenge #13-A color combo,pink, red, and chocolate with hearts! This combination makes a great challenge. I used the colors pink and chocolate when I colored then added red hearts for shine on the card. This stamp was so much fun to play with.
Papertake Weekly Challenge-This challenge Pretty Pink Papertake, is to use mostly pink on your card. I have lots of different shades of pink on this card. Didn't really plan it when I started working on it just kind of evolved into it. I really like pinks so all is good!

These are all fantastic challenges, take a minute to check them out and play along with the ones you like!

Lotsa Love

I made this card for four challenges that I thought would be perfect for this cute image. I love these Kraftin' Kimmie's Stamps girls. So I have been trying to do Kraftin' Kimmie's Challenges each week to see what everyone else is doing with them also. The Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp Challenge this week is Challenge #6, Lotsa Circles. I thought with all the circles on the bottom of her dress and the round button eyes on her dolls that it would be my inspiration for the challenge.

The second challenge that I decided to use this card for was the Copic Colour Challenge #39 to use the colors G05 emerald Green, R29 Lipstick Red, and Y08 Acid Yellow. Luckily I had all 3 of these colors and decided to go playful with them. This is definitely not my typical type of card though I do like the way it came out. I didn't put a saying to it yet though because I am not sure what it will used for maybe a birthday card.

The third challenge that this card was made for was Allsorts Challenge Week 27, a card or something for a child. I think this image is perfect for any little girl who has a favorite doll that goes everywhere. My own daughter when she was young had one just like these and loved it to the point of ruin.

The fourth challenge is for Paperplay Challenges 09 Week 41 a recipe. The recipe is to use 2 designer papers, 3 buttons and 1 ribbon. I love all three items in the recipe so it was a great challenge for me. This is the first time I have tried one of their challenges.

Supplies
Stamps: Kraftin Kimmie's Stamps
Paper: SU YoYo Yellow, Garden Green, Papertrey White, and DP Basic Grey
Inks: Copics
Accessories: Nesties, MS Punch, SU Photo Corner Punch, Cuttlebug Embossing Folders, CTMH Spiral Clip, Michaels Ribbon, and Walmart Craft Buttons

I hope you have liked this card I created. It was lots of fun to try something totally different than what I normally do. I would really appreciate knowing what you think.

Happy Creating,
Mary
