Those who regularly visit my blog, will have noticed that there is a huge drop in crafting productivity in the last couple of months. This is because we are in the process of selling our house. We have a purchaser and the sale is going through. However, we have not found our "Forever Home" yet, so everything is being packed up into boxes and put in a container.
Even though my paper crafting stash is still in situ at home, I just have not felt the urge to craft, but I needed to make an anniversary card, so this morning I quickly made this so that it can catch the post later today.
For this card, I used one of the Lavinia Stamps "Sticker Stencils" for the heart shapes. For the darker heart, I used "Vibrant Fuchsia" Ranger Archival Ink for the base colour, stamping the cogs, part of the Lavinia Stamps "Cog Set 3" in Versafine Clair "Charming Pink" ink.
For the lighter heart, I used "Pink Peony" Ranger Archival Ink for the base colour, using the same ink to stamp the stars, which is one of the Lavinia "Mini Stamps".
I used Versafine Clair "Twilight" dark blue ink to stamp the Lavinia "Large Key" and the "Love" sentiment which is part of the Lavinia Stamps "Live the life" stamp set.
Finally, I added touches of a gold sparkle gel pen to highlight areas of the design.
I'm sure you have been far to busy to craft Sam, and I do hope that you find the perfect place to live in the near future. It is of course great to see this anniversary card which is really pretty with the added stamped key with the 'love' placed along it. The two tones of pink are perfect, and I love the added stamped cogs on the darker and the pretty stars on the paler pink heart..a fabulous card. x
