Happy Valentine's Day

  Hi everyone!  I'm up on the Pawsome Stamps blog today with this card I created using the Sweet Cupcakes Stamp and Die Set.

To start this card I used a scalloped frame slimline die to cut the pink splattered paper.  I then used another slimline die to cut out the red window frames.  

Next, I stamped these gorgeous cupcakes from the Sweet Cupcakes Stamp Set.  I colored them with copic markers, and cut them out using the coordinating die set.

I stamped the sentiment, which is from the Sweet Cupcakes Stamp Set, directly onto the background in black pigment ink, and clear heat embossed for some shine!

I assembled my card using red cardstock for the base, and adhered the cupcake images with foam tape for some dimension.

To start this card I die cut a piece of kraft cardstock using the scalloped frame die in the Frames Squared Die Set.  I then used the smallest stitched square from the same die set to cut out a piece of smooth white cardstock.  I used the Petite Paw Prints Stencil with Distress Oxide Ink Kitsch Flamingo to create the background.

This stamp set comes with sentiments that fit right on the front of the book!  I love mystery stories, so I chose the "Mystery at the Dog Park" sentiment, and stamped it on the book cover with black pigment ink.  

I die cut a textured teal cardbase using the largest stitched square die in the Frames Squared Die Set.  I assembled my card, adhering the layers together, and popping up the image with foam tape for some dimension!
