Howdy Elle-ments
Easy Layers 1 Elle-ments
I created the base of the card using the Easy Layers 1 Elle-ments as a basis for my layout. I love the large stitched banner that is included in this set! I ink blended a piece of scrap cardstock with just the ink on my blender brushes for this! The Hippo Hooray images (I used all of them on this card) were Copic colored, die cut, and added to create a mini scene on the inked banner. To my images, I added monochromatic dots for some texture. I finished the card off with a banner sentiment and some white gems.
I started the card with a light ink blended panel using only the ink left on my red blender brush for this soft pink color. The waving row of hearts was stamped in red ink over the pink blended area. This panel was layered behind a white panel that was die cut using a standard circle. The sweet images, the fox and bear, were Copic colored and added to the panel with foam adhesive. The sentiments were white heat embossed onto black cardstock strips. This panel was adhered to a notecard layered with red cardstock that was die cut using the Easy Layers 1 Elle-ments.
So Tweet is a mini set that has so many possibilities! After some quick Copic coloring, these cute birds were die cut using the coordinating So Tweet Elle-ments. The XOXO Elle-ments (retired) works well if you have this in your stash as little "peek-a-boo" places for the birds to stick out of! Look through your collection and see what large word dies would work for this technique! I chose a few colors of cardstock that were a bit non-traditional when it comes to Valentine's Day. I added a supporting sentiment from Love Tags which was white heat embossed onto black cardstock. To bring some sparkle to this, I added a few white gems.
