I stamped my own background using the smaller stamps that comes with the Lawn Fawn set with the coffee mugs and sentiment I used on the tag. I inked the paper with spun sugar DI. The tag was stenciled with brown ink and I also added a few hearts before I attached the mugs, stamped onto a left over piece of DP. The ribbon was part of a Christmas gift and I used brown string.
This card is for:
Addicted to Stamps - #141 Love + a Stamp
Creatalicious Challenges - #108 Anything Goes + Option: add some hearts
Creative With Stamps Challenge - #11 Valentine
Color Throwdown - #428 Color Inspiration
looks great and now you have given me a good idea. My eldest daughter loves starbucks so I gill give her a starbucks git card in a card like this!
ReplyDeleteI like the tag and the wee teacups...they are so adorable.
Love the layers and background stamping there simplicity makes the eye focus on the beautiful tag.
ReplyDeleteFab background stamping and really like how these soft colours contrast with the tag, Plus how you followed the background stamped colours with the sweet little mugs. Have a fun week x
ReplyDeleteThese paperpieced mugs are very sweet and pop out so well from the vintage look of the tag! Your layering and the beautiful palette make this simple card very elegant and interesting. Your design is unique as always!

ReplyDeleteHello, Pia! I don't do Valentine's either except for my man! I do make a lot of heart-themed cards though! I can't help myself - I love hearts! Your card is gorgeous and I like the coffee theme! Your stamped background with the hearts and coffee beans is so cute!

ReplyDeleteIt's a great idea to use this coffee set for a valentine card - love how you created the background with the beans and hearts!
ReplyDeleteLayers, stamping and colours here are awesome...love the background hearts.xx{aNNie}
ReplyDeleteFabulous and lovely card Pia. I haven't normally done Valentine or such cards, but last summer one of my clients asked for a love themed card for her hubby! Oh, I thought, there are people like that in Finland too. So nowadays I have some in stock for a case;-))m
ReplyDeleteI love tag cards and don't ever make any. Thank you for the inspiration with this lovely card.
ReplyDeleteHugs,

I'm kind of like you-- I get all inspired by the lovey-dove cards and inspiration photos. This is so fun: I always enjoy a play-on-words, and I always appreciate it when folks make their own paper! I really like the ribbon plus twin.
ReplyDeleteI just left a comment... did it disappear???
