Happy New Year!

 Hello and Happy New Year to You!

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!  Mine was very relaxing.  Now we are looking forward to some winter weather- finally!  

The new Spellbinder Club Kits are here!  As I am a sucker for Swedish folk art designs, the new Clear Stamp and Die of the Month for January is perfect for me!  


I opted to go with something a bit less traditional for this card, choosing red, blue and yellow hearts.  The images were stamped with Versamark Ink and then heat embossed with white embossing powder.  Using a white Prismacolor pencil, I colored portions if each of the images.  

Each heart was die cut out with the coordinating die.  The sentiments were also stamped with Versamark ink and heat embossed.  The sentiments were then die cut with the coordinating banner dies.  

I adhered a narrow strip of black and white striped paper to the lefthand side of the card front, then cut another panel, just a bit narrower than the card front.  I added a couple of layers of cs to the back of the panel to add dimension once the panel was adhered to the card front. 

The hearts were applied and the sentiment strips were popped up on dimensional tape.  A few black sequins finish off the card. 

I am thinking this card would be perfect for a teen or young adult.  What do you think?
