More Keeping it Simple Cards......





Good Morning everyone!
I've titled this week as Keeping it Simple week (sort of) and today I have a few more cards to add to my simple card collection. Using the Happy Heart Day stamp set from SU, I made a small collection of cards. Can you tell how much I love this stamp set?! lol




I used my Cuttlebug heart embossing folder for the design and mounted it onto red cardstock from the Cut Cardstock Company. My image is lightly colored in with my Copic Markers and mounted with Nestabilities circle templates. To embellish my card I used dazzling diamonds (SU), mini red brads, ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon and a button (SU's Button bouquet) an place a pearl in the center of it. I also used my spritzer tool and spritzed a bit of color around my image.








The last two cards feature the Happy Heart Day stamp also. I embellished the pink card using my cuttlebug Swiss Dots folder, pearls and ribbon. The last card I simply used some scrap DP, Copic Markers, dew drops and liquid glass to embellish the hearts.
Have a super great day and tomorrow I have a couple of awards to share and a candy announcement to post. Take care and thank you so much for stopping by.
