Loved with Koren Wiskman

Hello everyone. Koren here with a Valentine card with zero colorings. I actually have three cards created in the same way but using different colors and patterns. For these cards, I used the Neat & Tangled Journaling and Love Mail die sets as well as the Typed Sentiments stamp set.

To start, I cut a piece of woodgrain cardstock or patterned paper to 3 1/2 by 4 3/4 inches. Then I cut the medium size heart from the Love Mail die set out of black, white, and red cardstocks as well as some patterns from my stash. I also cut the smallest heart from the same set using the same colors. These hearts are to replace the o in "loved".

For the word "loved" I used the Neat & Tangled Journaling Dies and cut them from the same colors of cardstock. I cut each letter four times so that I could stack them together using my liquid adhesive. It makes them sturdy embellishments that look great. I used a ruler to line up my letters as straight as possible using liquid adhesive to tack them in place.

For each of the cards, I stamped some of the sentiments that I thought went well with the word "loved" from the Typed Sentiments stamp set. I stamped and heat embossed them before cutting them into tiny strips with my paper trimmer.

I adhered the main card panels to white craft foam using tear tape adhesive and then attached them to light gray card bases. These cards are cut to size A2 and scored in a top folding portrait orientation.

I adhered the first of the three hearts on each card with liquid adhesive flat to the card panel. The subsequent two are popped up using foam tape. The sentiments were adhered in a similar fashion. I wanted them to be wonky and whimsical so I stuck them on crooked with a little flair.

I hope that I've inspired you to create something loving today using Neat & Tangled products. Thank you for spending your time with me.
