Another Valentine card today as I am playing along with the Clean and Simple challenge at Splitcoast. I used the 'Magic Masking Tape' technique for the background of my card. It is a simple and fun thing to try. I pressed my masking tape directly onto my Distress ink pad-sticky side down. When the tape is all inked up, I placed it onto my paper and rubbed then removed. It gives you distressed looking lines.
Next, I cut the tag then stamped it and added it to my card front. I stamped the heart again so I could colour it with Copic markers and pop dot it onto my tag.
Thanks for much for coming by and taking a look.
I am also adding my card to these challenges:
