Hi everyone!
Great challenge at Paper Cutz this week - use a tag on your project. Lots of freedom and I love the look of a good distressed tag on any project! Here is a small A2 sized card I made just because I feel like this in my life right now! I am so lucky to have a wonderful husband and two healthy and happy girls. This quote has always been one of my favorites too so I entered it at the Frosted Design Challenge - and this cute Lilly Bean image from Tiddly Inks is a perfect match! I inked everything here with Close to Cocoa from Stampin' Up.
I colored Lilly Bean with my Copics and actually cut out the cup separately and paper pieced it on adhering the edges of the cup with adhesive and putting a large pop dot in the middle. The cup bows out a bit which makes it look a bit more 3D. I cut my tag on my expressions using my Gypsy. The tag is from Celebrations and I placed a little tiny heart on the edge from Sweethearts. Once I cut it out I placed it on the shadow cut.
The little heart that was left over I used to ink the negative on the brown paper under Lilly. Once that dried a bit I took my Stickles - cotton candy and stickled over the negatives. I also added a bit of ribbon to my tag and adhered that. Once I was finished I popped Lilly Bean off the page.
Thanks for looking and please leave a comment I do so love them!!!
Enjoy!
This card is so so so cute! You did such a great job!
