Hugs and Kisses

Hello, today i would like to show you the card that "matches" the tin. The challenge over on "Cute Card Thursday" blog for this week is to create a 1. Birthday or Anniversary card. Since barely need any Baby cards i went with a 1. Anniversary card. "You are my prince charming" and "hugs and kisses"... i think does work, alt ho the set is very "Valentinish" with that much pink and red :-)


To find a paper that worked nicely with the tin, was not very easy. Luckily i have found this old Heidi Grace paper in my stash. I don't really know why i was buying it at the time.. i guess cause it sparkled so pretty silver?! The pattern is totally useless for cards :-( after i had cut the papers to size the circle sentiments were not to read at all. i have used several sizes of my Nest abilities on the paper and cut with a e-xacto knife randomly circles out and layered an other piece of DP paper underneath to create some sort of layout. After that i added sewing and the embellishments - layout copied off the tin.
Stamps: Tilda and Edwin kissing from the "New Years Collection" 2008, Sentiment: "Hugs and Kisses" by Amuse Art stamps
Paper: Stampin up (Pixie Pink, Real Red), Heidi Grace (Archivers)
Embellishments:
Shimmerz Spritz (Babies Breath), Shimmerz paints: bubble gum and Ho Ho Silver, Stampin up (ribbons), Making Memories (buttons, safety pin, red brads and foil - Michaels), chipboard cown (Panduro Hobby)
Tools: Stampin up (star punch, various circle punches and word window punch)
Copic Sketch: c2, w6, c3, r81, r85, r39, w5, c5, e000, r000, e50, c9, c7, r83, e31, c06, y21, r20,
e11, e00, w7, w2
