I did a Valentine for my card, and I only used one stamp on the whole card!! Check it out!
Isn't this fun?! I have been seeing the Bokeh technique all over Pinterest, so I gave it a try. I created the special effect on a piece of Whisper White by sponging Calypso Coral and then adding lots of hearts in Calypso Coral and Real Red. The heart decorative mask is perfect for this style. I will be trying out the stars and polka dots next! To finish the card, I adhered my bokeh paper to a Whisper White card base and then made a banner for my sentiment. I die cut "LOVE" in Basic Black with the Little Letters thinlets and added "YOU" on a Calypso Coral heart. I looked through my different sentiments and decided the Banner Blast set had the right size "YOU" for my card.
This was a very fun and fresh card! I hope you have a little time this week to join the challenge with us. You can find all the details plus more great samples at Create with Connie and Mary.
Thanks for visiting! Happy New Year and Happy Stamping!
