February 2025 Card Chain Reveal

Hey there - time for another Card Chain reveal! Twenty-five people played in February; see the full reveal HERE. My card went to Carol G (Crafty Stamper) in the UK:

Supplies: Paper - Paper Studio Vintage Valentine 6x6";

Ivory & Pinks heavyweight cardstock

Stamps with Dies - Lawn Fawn Bannerific (retired);

Hero Arts Wild Columbine Bundle (sentiment)

Dies - Poppystamps Vintage Scalloped Heart;

AJVD Stitched Dot Rectangle Backdrop Set

SCT With Love event kit - Heart Confetti

Other - Copic Markers C02, C00;

TH Black Soot Distress Ink

This was another card that came together just as envisioned - it doesn't happen all that much & excites me when it does!! I followed the sketch, used the themes of flowers (in patterned paper) & hearts, plus friendship, and technique of die-cutting. Here are all the options we had available:

Color Palette Option

Sketch Option

Theme Options: Celestial / Hearts and Flowers / Friendship

Product / Technique Options: Embossing Powder / Die Cutting

I didn't feel the colors this month since I wanted to be more Valentine-y. I had just bought a new 6x6 pad with vintage Valentine papers & decided to use it with the sketch. Ended up making an A7 card to get all the elements in, given the dies I used. The heart die was bought locally on clearance & is getting first play here. I also thought it was time to finally use a December Spellbinders 3D embossing folder which gave a nice texture to my background. I used a retired Lawn Fawn banner set but they have a similar one (Bannertastic) available.

I received this beautiful card from Joanne (Slices of Life) in CT USA. I just love the pretty embossed leafy background combined with the die cut leaves!

If you want to join us for March (you only make and mail one card), check it out HERE by March 6th. We'd love to see you in the chain!!

Thanks for visiting and have a crafty day!!
