Tricia's Stamping Creations: We Create February Blog Hop Sweet Deals

It's time to hop along with the We Create February Blog Hop and this month we are focusing on Sweet Deals. With Valentine's Day coming up soon, and Sale-a-bration in its final month, the Design Team has so many possibilities to showcase to help inspire you to get creative.

Today's card design has a fun Valentine feel to it but it could also work well for a February birthday. I love the beautiful design from the Most Adored Specialty Designer Series Paper, a Level 1 Sale-a-bration Reward you can earn Free with a qualifying $50 order. It makes the perfect background for this sweet card design. For my focal design, I chose to use the cute bunny from the Fluffiest Friends Bundle, which can be found in the Online Exclusives in my Online store. There are several images in this bundle that would work well for this card design. The Perennial Postage Dies add detail to the focal layer and gives the appearance of a postage stamp. I don't know how anyone can resist this adorable bunny with his little cupcake treat.

I love the color combination for this card design that I took from the designer series paper background. I chose Real Red cardstock for the card base and mat layer for the focal image to help make it pop against the background. I colored the bunny image with Stampin' Blends Markers to bring him to life. I added the Flirty Flamingo heart die cut with the Radiating Dies, which were also used to die cut the Real Red layer. The stitched detail on both adds texture to the design. For embellishments, I chose to use the pretty Bubble Bath Sheer Ribbon which is a wonderful match for the background color of the designer series paper and for a touch of bling, I added some simple Basic Rhinestone Jewels. To add depth and dimension to the design. I popped up the focal layer and the bunny with Stampin' Dimensionals. This sweet card design is sure to make someone smile when they receive it.
