Welcome to the Mama Elephant November Stampede Blog Hop!
Today I am sharing this slimline love-themed card with the brand new Up With Love Stamp Set and coordinating dies and Big You Are Love Die. Layered stenciling for the background provides the perfect backdrop for this sweet critter card.

Watch the creation of this slimline up with love card from start to finish below or click HERE to watch in HD:
A background was die cut from smooth white cardstock using the background die from the Slim Window Dressing Collection. The edges were masked off with post it tape. The Lawn Fawn Cloudy Stencil and Tattered Rose Distress Ink was used to created an all over pink cloud design.
The Simon Says Stamp Bursting Hearts Stencil was the stenciled over the background with the same Distress Inks color for a beautiful tone-on-tone design.
Images from the Up With Love Stamp Set were stamped on Bristol Smooth Cardstock with Lawn Fawn Jellyfish Ink and colored in with the following Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers:
- Bunny: Mid Gray, Gray Tint, Blender, Pale Pink, Geranium Red, Tea Rose
- Duckling: Mustrd, Blender, Pale Pink, Bright Yellow, Pale Orange, Geranium Red, Tea Rose
- Bear: Mid Brown, Oatmeal, Pale Pink, Geranium Red, Tea Rose
- Fox: Brown, Light Brown, Medium Beige, Pale Pink, Geranium Red, Tea Rose
The images were die cut using the coordinating dies.
The Big You Are Love Die was die cut from smooth white cardstock and inked with Tattered Rose Distress Ink and Festive Berries Ink. The greeting was die cut two more times and stacked one on top of another as shown. A greeting from the Up With Love Stamp Set was stamped on the background with Festive Berries Ink. The die cut greeting was adhered above the stamped phrase.
The stamped, colored, and die cut images were adhered to the design as shown.
The card was finished with a scattering of heart embellishments.
