My last entree for the "Love and Hearts"challenge at Lost Coast designs/Carmens Veranda stamps.

 

I absolutely love this couple.

And so perfect for Valentine's Day with a twist.

The Love stamp is in Dutch, but also available in English.

And this is how I made the card.

LCD Frank and bride of Frank.

CV Dictionary Liefde (dutch)

LCD Dictionary Love (english)

Daisy florish

Distressink

Villainous potion

Kitch flamingo

Barn door

Derwent inktense and Faber Castel skintones.

Finger sponges and stick sponge.

If you don't have a sponge stick you can also use a cotton swab.

I started by cutting out a paper heart to use as a mask.

Save the outer layer of the paper heart. We'll need it later.

Using a finger sponge and a kitsch flamingo, create strokes from the center outward.

These strokes should be about 2 cm long.

Repeat this process with Barn Door.

Keep the strokes a little shorter so the pink still shows through.

And repeat this again with villainous potion.

But leave about half a centimeter of space between the strokes.

Now use the outside of the paper heart as a mask 

and stamp with Villainous potion the dictionary love stamp.

Remove the paper heart and check that it is in the correct place.

Take the outer heart mask and place it neatly on the card.

Stamp the daisy florish with Distressink Barn door.

Stamp with Villainous potion 3 flowers, cut them out and glue them on.

Stamp Frank and his bride with ink on 3 and color them.

And cut them out.

And then I made a mistake.

When I cut out and glue an image,

I always print the stamp on the card first and then glue the cut-out stamp on.

But it was getting late, and I was very tired.

Well, then you're not paying attention, and before I knew it, 

I've glued Frank and his bride on.

All in all, the card turned out quite nicely.

Will you join this fun challenge?

There's still time until the end of the month.
