Hello and welcome to another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop, formerly known as the Happy Stampers Blog Hop.  We’ve got a new logo and a slightly different name, but we’re still the same group.  Hope that you like the new look!  🙂

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sunshine Sayings and Sealed With Love stamp sets to create my card for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop today.  We’ve got a color challenge and this is what I created for it.

Here are the colors that we’re using today.

My card design and the red and white colors were loosely inspired by the Fusion Challenge this week:

I started by adhering a panel from the Sending Love DSP Stack to the front of a Real Red card base with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  Then I stamped the two heart images from the Sealed With Love photopolymer stamp set randomly over a panel of Whisper White card stock in VersaMark Ink.  I sprinkled the panel with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heat embossed it.

I stamped the “sending” sentiment from the Sunshine Sayings stamp set in Real Red ink on the Whisper White panel and then adhered the panel to a panel from the Gold Foil Sheets with SNAIL.  I cut the heart from Real Red card stock and the “love” sentiment from Gold Foil Sheets with the Sunshine Wishes Thinlits Dies and I adhered them to the Whisper White panel with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I adhered the layered panel to the DSP covered card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals and then I added three Pearl Basic Jewels next to the sentiment to finish it.

I adhered a strip of the Sending Love DSP to a Whisper White panel inside the card.

You can see a complete list of supplies, including card stock cuts, at the very bottom of this post.
