30 Day Challenge Card #2 - Heart Medallion


Afternoon everyone! Today was a beautiful day and it was so sunny and spring is finally here! I'm so excited and happy! So I hope you enjoy this card! Read on for more!


So today! I used these supplies!

Martha Stewart Circle Cutter
Love Me Paper Pad
Stampin' Up! Corner Rounder
Stampin' Up! 3 Hearts Punch
Creme Cardstock
Red Ink Pad
Sentiment of your choice

That's it! : )


Here I cut out 2 circles. The red circle is 2.5 inches and the pink circle is cut at 2 inches. But I decided to cut out 3 more creme circles to off set the hearts I'll be adhering to the circles. One is two sizes smaller than the pink circle, the second one is two sizes larger than the pink circle, and the thrid creme circle is two sizes larger than the red circle. Sorry for the confusion!

I punched out little hearts with my 3 Hearts Punch, I used the zig zag pattern in the Love Me Pad.


Here I took the dotted pattern paper and eyeballed the size and adhered it!


As you can see I punched out all the small hearts and adhered them around the red circle.


A lot went on in this photo. I punched out more small hearts from different patterned paper in the Love Me pad. I then adhered them around the pink circle. As I said before I cut out three more creme circles. One has 3 hearts from the Stampin' Up! 3 hearts punch out of the dotted paper and adhered to the smallest creme circle. I added dimensionals to the back of the creme circle. I adhered it to the pink circle and then second creme circle onto the back of the pink circle. Now I adhered the red circle to that and the last creme circle to the back of the red circle.... Gosh! Sounds like a lot huh? If your confused comment and I can make a video how to make medallions.


So here I cut two pieces of creme cardstock and trimmed out a triangle at the end of both then I stamped my sentiments onto them in red ink. I adhered them under the medallion. You can round the corners if you like to.. but I decided not to. The medallion is the finishing touch! Enjoy! Keep staying tuned to the card challenge! Thanks!

Valentines Day Card

I just wanted to make a Belated Valentines day card featuring some Stampin! Up products and I used the cuttlebug, you can interpret this card any way you'd like, Heres how!

First your going to start off with standard card size 5 1/2 by 8 1/2 and scoring at 4 1/4. I used some light pink card stock. I used the Martha Stewart scoring board.
Next your going to take another sheet of card stock I used red and cut it at 1/8 smaller than the pink card stock.
Your going to take your cuttlebug next using the A plate and B plates I used Swiss Dots embossing folder and placed my red stock inside the folder and cranked it through.
If you have ever used a cuttlebug before you'll know that the folder has now raised one side of your paper with a pattern of your choosing.
Adhere the now embossed red card stock to the pink card base.
Your going to make the diamond shape next.
Cut a light pink 3x3 square and layer a 2 3/4 by 2 3/4 red square and adhere that to the pink square. Then cut out a 2 1/2 by 2 1/2 white square don't adhere this just yet!
Your going to take a heart stamp of your choice I used the Stampin! Up Sprinkled Expressions. Take a red ink pad of your choice and stamp this on the white card stock square diagonally. (Look at the picture for reference).
Next adhere this white square to the pink and red square.
Your going to take the squares and adhere them diagonally to the card some where in the middle closer to the bottom.
Now for the hearts I used Stampin! Up heart punch and punched out 3 hearts in light pink. Next I took the smallest of the hearts and punched it out of red card stock. I ran those 3 through the cuttlebug and adhered them to the other 3 hearts.
I took some skinny champagne colored ribbon and adhered it to the card at the top along with the hearts! I hope you enjoy!
