Sending you Love

Howdy!

Today's card is for the Rainbow Challenge Blog's Fiercely Fuchsia challenge. For the die cut LOVE sentiment, I did the direct to paper technique. Where you apply the ink pad to the cardstock and swipe, which creates fuchsia cardstock. Then I used my Xyron to run some foam sheet onto, I did this twice. The first time, I placed the cardstock onto the side with adhesive from the Xyron. And the second time, I ran the foam sheet with the cardstock on top through the Xyron to make a sticker. After this step, I then ran the cardstock sticker through my die cuttter and the LOVE die cut.

I am also entering it into the Simon Says Stamp With Love challenge. Along with the Time Out Challenges Affectionate challenge. And the Try It on Tuesday Share the Love challenge.

Stamps: CTMH Floral Happiness, Hero Arts Love Stamp & Cut

Paper: CTMH White Daisy

Ink: Catherine Pooler Flirty Fuchsia, CTMH Intense Black, Fern, New England Ivy
