Projects
The Adoring You Stamp of Approval Collection is a great one to invest in. I have already created 12 cards with this collection. Every time I go to clean my craft table to start something new, I end up creating another card with the Adoring You collection. Considering this blog hop in lengthy, I want you to enjoy the entire hop with out it consuming too much of your time. So, I am sharing two cards today and will share the rest in the upcoming few days.
Love is the Key…
The beautiful keys and key holes from The Key Stamp Set inspired me to create my first card. Start by die-cutting at least two of each of the elements on masking paper. Arrange the die-cut pieces on a white card panel. Clear heat emboss the background using the Love Note Background Set. Using your favorite ink blending tool, lightly apply Rose Petals ink to the background. Remove the masking pieces and stamp the keys and key holes in the resulting white areas using the following inks: Black Jack, Peppermint Scrub, and Royal Treatment. White heat emboss the sentiment on Smoke cardstock and trim. Cut down the panel to 4″ x 5-1/4″ and adhere to your cardbase. Finally adhere the sentiment to the card panel with foam tape.
Love You
The cute birds in the Happy Together Stamp Set inspired me to create this card. Use repeat stamping to stamp the bird across your card panel. This would be pretty using several different color combinations. I selected purples: Sweet Sixteen, Pixie Dust and Flirty Fuchsia. Make sure the ink is dry and then gold heat emboss the sentiment. Trim your card panel to 4″ x 5-1/4″ and then adhere to a midnight cardbase.
I hope you were inspired by my projects in some way. Leave a quick comment to enhance your winnings for the blog hop prize. Enjoy the rest of the hop =)

Fabulous cards Tracie. I love the purple bird silhouettes. Gorgeous color combos.
Gail Plaskiewicz says
I love the keys & the locks. We have a key like one on your card. When I see those keys & locks I keep thinking “You have the key to my heart” would be a great saying for your card although I like what you have on there. Those purple birds are cute too. I’ve never seen those birds in purple but hey you can make them purple if you wish. In my world I would make them multi colored but that’s just me. Thanks for showing us your pretty cards! Now I want to create some cards!

Happy New Year, Tracie! It must be wonderful to be able to sit down and create some more, especially if you’re inspired. And it shows in your creations! With my husband’s health issues going on, I haven’t had time to craft in over a month. Hopefully I will find some time this week. You make me want to grab my purple and pink inks!
