Hello! Today I am showing you how to create this super sweet card.

The products I used are:

• White Card Hammered 255gsm
• Fleck Kraft Card 250gsm
• White Card Super Smooth 300gsm
• Raspberry Pink Plain Card 240gsm
• Pink Plain Card 290gsm
• Anita’s PVA Tacky Glue 60ml
• Stick it! 3D Foam Tape 9mm
• Love you die cut
• Stamps
• Copic markers
• Sequins
• Twine
• Nuvo drops
• small heart die
• Pink pigment ink and a sponge
• white embossing powder
• heat gun

To start with I got a piece of White Card Hammered 255gsm and cut this down to make my card base. I then folded this in half. I made my card front a piece of Fleck Kraft Card 250gsm.

You will need to stick the card front onto your card base I used Anita’s PVA Tacky Glue 60ml. I die cut the words love you and stamped my images using my favourite White Card Super Smooth 300gsm. Once I coloured the images in and cut them out, I added some pink pigment ink to the love you words. You can do this with a sponge. I adhered the words and images to my card front using Anita’s PVA Tacky Glue 60ml.

For the heat embossed sentiment I used a piece of Raspberry Pink Plain Card 240gsm, which I added some white embossing powder to and set with a heat gun. I then added this below the love you die cut using Stick it! 3D Foam Tape 9mm. I also added a small heart die cut using Pink Plain Card 290gsm.

To finish the card I added some sequins and nuvo drops. I also added some pink twine at the top of my card. For the pink envelope I used a piece of Pink Plain Card 290gsm and made an envelope. I think cards look so much nicer in a coloured envelope and my family love receiving them. Papermill Direct have so many pretty envelopes to choose from.

I hope you have fun making this pink and brown colour combination card, I had so much fun making it!
