Today I've been inspired to create a card with minimal or budget friendly supplies. Most paper crafters have ink and paper readily available. So, I chose an inexpensive stamp with the coordinating die, and an affordable word die.
Here's what I created. It's a cute birthday card for my husband, but it can also be used for a Valentine's Day card.
I love getting all my supplies out and making a huge mess creating. However, sometimes it's nice to create with minimal supplies....and the mess is so much easier to clean up.
I started by stamping and coloring those adorable puffins from the Stud Puffin stamp set. I used my Copic markers to color them and then cut them out with the coordinating die. As always, I cut several additional pieces from white cardstock, gluing them together and stacking them up for more dimension.
I repeated the process for the Scripty Love die using red cardstock for the top layer.
To finish the card I used my blending tool to add some Peacock Feathers Distress Ink to the center of a rectangle I cut. I wanted this piece to be slightly smaller than my A2 card front. This can easily be done with a die or by simply cutting it on your paper cutter.
I stamped my sentiment and added the puffins and the word love. Then secured everything to the front of my folded note card.
Thanks so much for stopping by and taking a look. I hope you're inspired to create today.
