Hellooooooo my lovelies! I have a fun treat for you today! How are ya? I'm having fun in the craft room making lots of projects. Today's card is out of my normal color palette, and I love it! I was so happily surprised last week to receive a package from Nina at Waffle Flower, and it contained the most amaaaaazing new stamp set! It's called Love Letters!! OMG! It's from their latest product release. And the very cool thing is that it is a suite of products - stamps, dies, word cut outs, outlines and stencils that all go together. SO COOL, right? And it's like vintage tattoo art - also SO COOL! I squealed with delight when I opened the package and then sat down to make this card to share with you. It's bright and bold!
The finished card is an A2 white card base. I took a risk and layered the top layer in black! I tried gray, and navy, and kept coming back to the black because it's just so striking here with this big stamp. I splattered some white ink onto the black layer and set that aside to dry.
I stamped and die cut out that giant stamp with my MISTI for a perfect impression. I also stamped and cut out a few extra leaves and the bird from the Always stamp set. I colored everything with my Copic Markers in rich tones. Don't you adore this elegant hand with the pretty letter and roses??? Gasp.
Here's a close up of the flowers and that little birdie!
I affixed the stamp, some extra leaves, and the bird using foam tape so it pops up off the page.
I heat embossed the sentiment from the Enveloper Me stamp set - using white embossing powder for maximum impact on that rich black.
The final touch was to sprinkle some clear enamel dots around the card. I love just that little bit of shimmer/sparkle here.
Thank you for stopping by today to check out my project! Take care until we meet again! XOXO

Tremendously beautiful card. I've long been drawn to images and items (such as broaches) - especially antique and vintage ones - that depict female hands. As such, it's safe to say I'm madly in love with this release and will be adding it to my paper crafting wishlist at once. Thank you very much for highlighting this stellar new Waffleflower release.
