Just Sayin' - Hello Bluebird Stamps

 I have a sweet little Valentine's card for you today featuring one of the cuties from Hello Bluebird Stamps - Just Sayin' stamp set.

To create this card I first ink blended a panel using Distress Ink in Spun Sugar and using a cloud stencil in my stash.   This was applied to a card base.  Next I ink blended and die cut a piece of cardstock using the Grassy Knoll die by Hello Bluebird.  This was glued to the panel.

I used the Gallery Frame #4 die to die cut a mini gingham cardstock panel to create the broad but delicate frame which I backed with foam tape and applied to the panel.

On Copic friendly cardstock I stamped my main image and the balloon image together with some hearts from the same stamp set and coloured them with Copic markers.  Points were highlighted with a white gel pen and die cut backed with more foam tape and and applied in position.

Finally I die cut the word 'love' using the Joy & Peace Words Die by Hello Bluebird Stamps.  I die cut several times and layered up my colours starting and finishing with white with lilac layers in between.  This was applied with foam tape and with that the card was complete.

Happy crafting!
