Love Story - Crafty Meraki

 Hello friends,

Hoping you are enjoying the lovely Holiday season with your loved ones. I planned to inspire you to get more romantic with a cute couple that may remind you of your love story too! I am using the cutest couple stamp ever - Love Story for my card.

I stamped the cute couple on Bristol Smooth paper and colored them with Waterbased markers. Then I fussy cut the cute couple and used a black marker with edges. If you are someone who doesn't like fussy cutting, this stamp set has coordinating dies too.

For the back panel, I inkblended Distress Oxides in Picked Raspberry, Flamingo, Spiced Marmalade and Squeezed lemonade to get an ombre background. One tip to make your card elements look cohesive is use similar colors for the background and upper layers or go pick up a color wheel and choose the complimentary or analogous colors.

Then for LOVE I diecut a white cardstock with the Love slimline Tag die and got two Love die cuts. Then I used Flirty wings background die and debossed the pattern by making it go through the die cutting machine on one of the LOVE diecut. Then I adhered the two Love diecuts together, as I didnt want to loose the little dots and butterfly after running one LOVE diecut through the die cutting machine.

I added YOU that I cut from You did it diecut from the Congrats Slimline Tag die and after mounting LOVE with foam tape adhered you with glue and adorned the card with Meraki Rainbow sparkles

I hope you like this cute love card and are inspired to make one yourself. Check out other beautiful stamps and dies at the Crafty Meraki store! If you would like to see more of my work, you could follow me on Instagram at quill_ish where I share more ideas with Crafty Meraki products.
