BLESS MY BLOOMERS

I need another Anniversary card so I took advantage of today's Sketch Challenge over at Splitcoaststampers to make one!

I used new stamps for April from CLEAR DOLLAR STAMPS called Bless My Bloomers designed by Kim Teasdale. It is the sweetest set ever!

I used a combination of my Copic Markers and Blender Pen and Pixie Pink ink to color my image.

The horizontal vanilla panel was embossed with Floral Fantasy embossing folder and I gently rubbed my Pink Pirouette ink pad over the embossing. I also used CDS new Tickled Pink cardstock and ribbon. It matched the DSP from the Stampin Up Sending Love Specialty paper very well.

The hearts were stamped twice and layered up on dimensionals. I added some Crystal Stickles to the hearts to make them sparkle and match the glittery dsp better.

Card Supplies:

Stamps: Clear Dollar Stamps ~ Bless My Bloomers, Heartfelt Sentiments

Paper: Stampin Up ~ Very Vanilla, Sending Love Specialty DSP; Clear Dollar Stamps ~ Tickled Pink

Ink: Basic Grey, Pink Pirouette, Pixie Pink

Markers: Copics~Cool Grey & Pastel Greens

Accessories: Martha Stewart Scallop Punch, Cuttlebug Floral Fantasy Embossing Folder, Crystal Stickles, Dimensionals, Clear Dollar Stamps Tickled Pink Ribbon
