Hello, crafty friends! Today I am sharing the Valentine’s card that I made for my husband. We used to love traveling a lot, especially to more adventurous places. And then we had kids. Lucky for my kids, though, we can now blame the pandemic for our lack of travel. Still…a girl can dream. I have this ambitious dream of going to Antarctica. Not sure it will ever happen in real life, but I made it happen with this card. If you haven’t noticed, I tend to create cards using products from more than one company. Today’s mashup is brought to you by The Greetery and Sunny Studio.
Supplies
The Greetery – Destination Map Stencils
The Greetery – Destination Stamp Set
The Greetery – Destination Die Set
The Greetery – Destination North Pole Stamps
The Greetery – Destination North Pole Dies
Sunny Studio – Passionate Penguins Stamp Set
Pinkfresh Studio – Premium Dye Inks
Pinkfresh Studio – Blanket Stitched Rectangles
This card came together pretty easily. I stamped and die cut the little images from The Greetery sets. I colored the adorable penguins with my Copic markers. I ink blended the stencil background with two of my favorite blue Pinkfresh Studio inks – Sky Blue and Summer Shower. I was searching all through my stash for the perfect sentiment and finally settled on this one from My Favorite Things. I feel like I didn’t buy this set “Happy Camper” that long ago, and it’s already retired. Shocking! One day, I’m going to make a card without a retired stamp – I promise. In the meantime, I am sure you have the perfect sentiment in your stash, too.
By the way, I’m a bit obsessed with The Greetery right now. I really just want to buy ALL of their things. Speaking of buying, my most recent purchase was this Blanket Stitched Rectangle set from Pinkfresh Studio. I love how it frames this card!
That’s it for me today. Thank you so much for joining me, and I’ll see you next time!
Wishing you all a crafty day,
Allison
