Special Someone FMS421

Happy Monday! Since it is the week of Valentine’s Day, I thought it would be appropriate to share samples with the Special Someone stamp set. I’ve paired the stamp set with the newly released coordinating Special Day dies to create a week of inspiration. Today’s card layout is courtesy of the sketch below. Click on the image below for more info on this weekly sketch challenge.

I knew that I wanted to make at least one card that could be used for Valentine’s Day. Since this stamp set isn’t designed specifically for the holiday, I decided to create my own accent backgound paper with the stamps. Using the stamparatus, I stamped rows of heart outlines in Black Memento ink, then filled with Real Red ink. It took awhile to do a quarter sheet of card stock, but the end result was worth it. I used the Balmy Blue Stampin’ Blends to fill in the space between the hearts.

In case you missed it, last week Stampin’ UP! released 6 coordinating products that go with items from the Sale-a-Bration and January-June 2020 Mini Catalogs. The Special Day dies coordinate with the Special Someone stamp set. There are so many fun dies and I’ll be sharing some of them later in the week.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
