Good afternoon ! It's Challenge Monday at Outline Stamps and this week's theme is "Love is in the Air - Valentine Creations". You can find all the great Design Team samples and details here at
Outline's Blog.
I have a couple of Heart/Valentine stamps by Outlines both of which are great for layering as a lot of Outline stamps are.
I used Outlines E342 Heart Sq.Lg stamp for this card. I stamped the image twice & embossed in silver on black card stock and pink designer paper by My Mind's Eye - Lost & Found. I cut and layered the images as shown above & below. The heart & square are popped up into 4 layers but it's hard to see on the photo. I used Taffy Smooch Ink on the tiny hearts & dots on the border of the square. The centre heart is actually the back of the pink designer paper. The square is layered onto designer paper and then co-ordinating card stock. I used very narrow black border stickers by Starform and a silver heart charm with ribbon for the final touches.
I thought the above card had too much pink to give to my husband and had an extra square stamped & embossed so I made another card in red & black.
For the card above I just cut out sections of the one image and layered as shown. The striped designer paper is also from the same mini-pad (by My Mind's Eye). I used Siren Smooch Ink to add colour to the square border. I also added the 'Love You' sentiment from Outlines which was stamped once on black and embossed with silver and then with black Versafine Ink on Red card stock. I cut out the centre of the red and added to the black circle. A red bow is the final touch !

2 geogeous cards Shirley, I love those stamps with the hearts. I've not got this spellbinders die, but have seen a couple of cards made with them recently, I think they will have to go onto my wish list.

I love the red and black card best but both are great!!! I have to think about this weeks challenge as I don't think I have any hearts from Outlines - will have to get creative :)
Both your cards are gorgeous !! Beautiful work .. first time I have visited your blog .. off to have a peek around.. have a great evening .
Shirley,
These are gorgeous. I have a special fondness for the Outlines Rubber Stamps, and I can't seem to get enough of them to suit me. Every time I see a demonstration, I just NEED to have the stamp. LOL. I want this one now.
