Hi crafty friends!
I hope you are doing well!
Today I'm popping in real quick to share a simple, but cute, card that I made for a few challenges.
The challenges that I am entering are:

Here is a look at the card that I created:
When I saw the above sketch, I knew I wanted to create a little window with my heart shape. I cut four different patterned papers and adhered them onto a piece of scrap cardstock, alternating the patterns. I used a stitched rectangle to cut out my front panel from some white cardstock. Once I had that cut, I ran it through my die cut machine again, using a stitched heart to create my window. I popped up my window piece with foam tape onto my patterned paper strips and then adhered that to a white A2 top folding card. I stamped my sentiment onto a piece of light gray cardstock and very carefully fussy cut it out so that I could keep the wavy shape of the sentiment. I adhered that to the card, making sure to put a little piece of foam tape in the center of the sentiment strip so that it didn't get crushed when going through the mail. I stamped my little mouse with some black memento ink and did some quick coloring with Copic markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut it out and popped it up with more foam tape. I completed my card with a little pearl heart in the middle of the dandelion & a few sequins just to add a little sparkle.
This turned out so simple and I LOVE it!!
Copic Colors Used:
--Mouse: W0, W1, W3, R000, R00, R20--
--Dandelion: YG03, Y13--
