HEY LOVE, Pals Blog Hop January 2019 Stesha Bloodhart. Stampin' Hoot! #steshabloodhart #stampinhoot

Welcome to the Pals monthly blog hop. We’re so glad you’re here! January is all about making “Art from the Heart,” featuring projects for Valentines Day, Thinking of You, Get Well, or Sympathy.

You may be starting the hop here or coming from a previous Pal’s blog. Either way, you’ve come to the right place. You’ll find the the full line-up below to help you move, or “hop” along from Pal to Pal.

Create these handmade valentines using the All My Love Suite of Products. Created by 2019 Artisan Stesha Bloodhart, Stampin' Hoot!

Step-by-Step Instructions:

  1. With a Stampin’ Trimmer, cut a piece of Whisper White Thick Cardstock to 4 1/4″ x 11″.  Score and fold both pieces at 5 1/2″. 
  2. Cut two pieces of Whisper White Cardstock to 4″ x 5 1/4″.  Stamp the heart image (Forever Lovely Stamp Set) in Soft Sea Foam Ink (multiple times) as shown. Adhere to the card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.  
  3. Use the Big Shot & heart dies from the Be Mine Stitched Framelits Dies to crop the three die-cuts of Vellum Cardstock. Adhere as shown with small bits of Snail Adhesive. 
  4. Stamp the sentiment, two times, in Versamark Ink onto Smoky Slate Cardstock.  Cover with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder, flick to remove the excess, and set with a Heat Tool. Snip to apart and to size with a Paper Snips.  Adhere with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals. 
  5. Add Pearl Basic Jewels, a Heart Epoxy Droplet, (card on left) and Balmy Blue Gingham Gala Adhesive-Backed Sequins (card on right) as shown.

The All My Love Suite of Products is at the top of my list when it comes to the all-new 2019 Occasions Catalog.  The All My Love Designer Series Paper has a color combination that speaks to me.  Soft Sea Foam is such a beautiful color, I decided to use it as a soft accent to my card.

The Be Mine Stitched Framelits Dies are such a wonderful mix of hearts, eclectic and feminine, that pair well together, making for gorgeous focal points on any creation. Pair them with beautiful embellishments to make a simple, yet complete card with just the right pop of bling.

Snip the heart die-cut (shown here) into two pieces, then stack them to easily create a palette of hearts to fit the focal point.  Small amounts of Snail Adhesive or Mini Glue dots (hidden behind the sentiments) can be used to adhere the thin hearts to the card.
