Hi everyone! I have two cards to share with you today…Memory Box hearts, hearts and more hearts!

I love hearts and you probably love coffee! I’m a black tea girl… ugh… so I don’t get those swirly heart things in my cup! lol

The NEW Blissful Heart Hot Foil Plate is a stunner! So gorgeous!

I used silver hot foil with it on the lavender cardstock from the Memory Box Rainbow Reflections Mirror Pad. 6×6 cardstock… wow, it takes the foil so nice! So many beautiful colors of mirror card in this pad!

After foiling, I die cut the heart with the Memory Box Double Stitch Loving Heart Cut Out die. Fits perfect!

I used the Memory Box 3D embossing folder Heart Bouquet for the card panel layer…another gorgeous design by Dave from 2019 but still available… I’ll link below.

The sentiment is NEW from Birch Press Design…You Are Loved Noted Script hot foil plate and die set. I used Memory Box Glossy Black cardstock and silver hot foil. This picture it looks more champagne – ish color but it’s silver!

So pretty! Clean and Simple but elegant!

Back to the NEW Memory Box Cuppa Love card… this die is so cute! I love the heart steam, don’t you?!

I used the Double Stitch Loving Heart Cut Out die on this card also. I cut the largest heart in my cardbase, then I had to back the cardbase on the inside but that’s alright… it turned out nice with white on the inside. I love the double stitch lines.

Another NEW heart die, Pinpoint Burst Heart from Memory Box for the background insert… I love how they all fit with each other!

Cuppa is cut in white cardstock, the liquid in kraft and inked with Gathered Twigs Distress ink and a mini ink blending took and the heart and saucer in red cardstock. Super simple die inlaying… love simple puzzles! lol

I used this cute sentiment, ‘It’s the little things’, from the poppystamps Marzipan Greetings stamp set. On the inside… ‘this is a paper hug’.

I love that paper hug sentiment! Stamped with Archival ink pad Potting Soil.

So fun! I made these on Monday, took pictures yesterday and made two loaves of bread! It turned out so good! I’m happy! lol No stamps for happy bread hugs though! ha! It must be a two thing kind of week! lol

Hi everyone! It’s been a week so far…some anxiety here…our internet provider is discontinuing their email service which I’ve had forever! So I’ve had to spend hours changing log ins in all the places I used that email address over the years. Fingers crossed everything still works after January 6th which is the day they’re cutting it off! eek!

Thankfully I’ve gotten one card made in there to keep my sanity! haha

A brand NEW Peony die from Memory Box.. very fun and easy to use… I die cut in white and inked with two Altenew ink cubes and mini ink blending tools. The leaves/stems come with it too and I inked them the same way. I’ll link the colors below.

For You Posh Script is a NEW Memory Box die also. I die cut it three times and glued them together. I didn’t use the mat behind it this time, I just used the top outline part.

I wanted to bring in a heart so I used the largest heart from the Memory Box Double Stitch Happy Heart Cut Out die set.

I didn’t add a lot of thickness… just the thin mounting tape I love so well behind the heart. I use this pair of scissors, HERE, to cut it because it is sticky.

I inked around the edge of the A2 size top panel with Simon Says Stamp Deep Purple and an ink blending brush.

A Clean and Simple card by design with simple coloring too!

Thank you so much for stopping by today! I hope your week doesn’t have major tech changes too! Insert the crazy face!
