First Kiss Remembered

I already have the larger version of this stamp set, but was really glad when the bijou version was released.

Cut a 5” x 5” kraft card blank in half. Die cut a mat from Clarity stencil card using the 5.25” nested squares picot die.

Using a stamp platform, add the Bijou love Heart in Black soot Distress Archival ink (leave the stamp in place on the platform).

Colour the panels of the image using Derwent Inktense pencils blended with a watercolour brush pen (#400, #520. #700, #900, #300, #230, #210, #1400, #1210).

Once dry, replace the topper in the stamp platform, ink the stamp with Versamark ink and heat emboss with detail white embossing powder.

Add the Love outline to the topper in the same manner.

Colour the letters in the same manner as the heart (#400, #210, #900. #1400).

Add a drop shadow to the letters and heart using the same colouring method (#2120).

Mat up the topper and add it to the front of a 6” x 6” kraft card blank.

To finish the card, add one of the KISS Words stickers to a strip of kraft card, mat onto stencil card leaving a narrow border top and bottom. Add it across the card and trim the ends.
