BLOG HOP


We welcome you to Just For Fun's® first "Blog Hop". This will be fun so sit back, relax and visit each design teams blog to see what they have done. Some will even have blog candy to give away.
I have a Valentine "grunge heart" card. I stamped three dot heart B1944 and colored using Distress Ink fired brick, cut them out and layered them on top of each other and set aside. On white cardstock stamp valentine frame E2668 using black ink and trimmed with deckle scissors and colored using a stipple brush and cranberry ink . This was layered ontop of red cardstock which was trimmed on the two sides using Martha Stewarts heart border punch. Emboss a piece of white card stock with cuttlebug embossing folder D'vine swirl, tie a red satin ribbon around it and layer on a folded red card. Everything else will then be layered on top of this. To finish the card I punched out some branches using Martha Stewart's punch in red and white and placed them around the layered grunge hearts.
All stamps: Just For Fun® - B1944 dot heart, E2668 valentine frame
Ink pads : Distress Ink - fired brick, Archival - jet black, Adirondack - cranberry
Accessories: Martha Stewart Punches, grunge paper, satin ribbon

    Sharp card! I've never heard of a 'grunge' card before. The red lace punched edges really look great on the white.
