A Child’s C&S Valentine

HELLO everyone and a very Happy Tuesday to each of you!

I made today’s card with Stampin’ Ups A la Carte stamp ‘Elebration’.  He normally holds a balloon and birthday cake.  I kind of overrode it with a heart.  Hope you like it!!

        001

I first stamped the image (masking the balloon) and then heat embossed it with clear EP.  With my paper snips I did a little fussy cutting, cut the outline of the elephant and just in front of the cake I slipped a heart into his hands.

The ‘just for you’ is from Teeny Tiny Wishes stamping one word at a time and punching it out with the BoHo Blossom Punch.  Each word is mounted on a flag using the Petite Pennants Builder Punch.  The color combo was arrived from using a couple snippets from the Big Top Birthday DSP.  Keeping with a diamond pattern throughout the card, I used the SU! Background -Textured Plates.

       005 

Pennants and Elephant were popped up with the use of dimensionals.  While Tempting Turquoise ribbon was used to connect the pennants.

Sentiment is again Teeny Tiny Wishes and the Heart to Heart punch was used for the two hearts.

A quick and easy child’s card for sure, not a lot here to elaborate on, but if you should have a question…….you know I’m just a click away!

THANKS for stopping by ~ I LOVE the company!!!!  *smiles*

Very cute. I love that you changed up the image by adding a heart for Valentines.

I love this card and I just ordered the 'elebration' stamp with my SAB order last night! I think I'll make mine with the words changed around though--to 'just for you'. (If you don't mind me casing it.)

Linda said...

Hi Linda - Love the way you changed up what the elephant was holding. Genius! I was going to make a clever comment about the word order, but a few ladies beat me to it. Then again, I couldn't have topped the Yoda comment ;)

Love your card Linda! I think it is great that you used a heart instead of the cake - that makes the image suitable for a number of occasions!
