Happy Love Day Card and Video

Today I am sharing with you a card I made using Echo Park "Yours Truly". I get so excited whenever they release a new collection- they never disappoint.

This card is a pretty easy A2. I started by folding my card base and all the matting. The cut you see here in this picture is from Art Philosophy.  It is a ribbon slide cut at 2.75 inches.  At this size you can feed 1 inch ribbon through the slots.  The grosgrain I used is 3/4 inch.

Next I fed my ribbon through the slots and mounted it to one of the mats.  I wrapped the edges of the ribbon to the back.

Then I assembled the rest of the base of the card.

 Now for the cool technique I used for the sentiment on this card. You will need sentiment stamps (I love Pink By Design), Embossing Ink, Embossing Powder, a stamp block, a large flat button, a heat gun, and the magic tool . . . A powder stamp pouch.

 You will want to start by dusting the button with powder from a stamp pouch. Then mount your stamp and apply embossing ink to the stamp.  Gently push the stamp onto the powdered button.  Apply embossing powder and heat. It's pretty cool.  I made a video to show you how to do this technique.

I apologize for my voice, I have been under the weather lately.

  I hot glued the button the the ribbon slide.

 Isn't this fun!? The sentiment I chose says "Happy Love Day" it is from Love Always from Pink By Design.

Thank you as always for leaving comments! I really appreciate it!

I hope you have a creative day!
