SugarPea Designs - January Sweet 2 Repeat Blog Hop!

It's time again for our Sweet 2 Repeat Blog Hop! Our Pod Squad of designers are geared up to inspire you with even MORE creative possibilities featuring the newest SugarPea Designs stamps and dies from the January 2015 release.  




Here's the card I promised you on Monday.  No coloring - just new SPD dies, an embossing folder, a sentiment, and white heat embossing powder.  Do you ever have those occasions when you have an idea in your head for a card and it actually turns out on paper?  This was one of those cards for me - AND it has the CAS look I admire yet have to work at. This card wasn't work at all; it was pure pleasure as I puttered around making it.


Hearts are a favorite of mine, so the new heart dies are right up my alley!  The SugarCuts Notched Heart Journal Card die is the focal point of my card.  I used the SugarCuts Heart Border die to create the filled hearts.  The small hearts are the negative centers of the die cut and unfilled colored heart shapes are from the die cut border too - just cut apart.  I used the frame from SugarCuts Heart Journal Card die to cut the shape for the white paper under my patterned notched heart die cut.  A sentiment from the Special Delivery stamp set finished things off.  The die cut word love takes the place of the word on the stamp (which I masked) before stamping with VersaMark and finishing with white embossing powder. These three dies are a perfect fit, like Cinderella's shoe!
