First up is a CAS (clean and simple) pink monochromatic thank you card featuring the new Flourish Heart Trio die.
The die is designed with three hearts arranged in a triangular pattern. By flipping the die when die cutting across a Bristol panel, the negative cutouts resulted in a heart border. The positive heart pieces were saved for a future project. To back the border opening, 1/4” strips were trimmed from white glitter paper and coloured with RV10/63/55 pink Copic Sketch markers. The strip second from the top was left white.
The cute Journal Jamboree kitty image was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto X-Press It paper next. Coloured the kitty with C00/1/2 cool gray Copic Sketch markers and the heart with the same pink markers above before fussy cutting it out (this stamp set has coordinating dies). Stamped the sentiment from Plaque Slides Love and Friendship using Versafine Onyx Black ink and heat embossed with clear glitter embossing powder. Assembled the card onto a white card base and added clear shimmer to the heart for an all over sparkle to finish.

Next is a heart tunnel card featuring Sweet Friendship stamp and Rounded Hearts die sets.
Stamped, Copic coloured and fussy cutt out the image. There are coordinating dies for this stamp sè as well.
Copic markers used:
dog - E50/51/53/5/57
car - E40/41/ 42/44
cheeks - R81/83
log E30/31/33/35/37
ÝFor the heart tunnel background, three panels were trimmed from white to A2 size (would have used coloured cardstock, if I had the appropriate colours 🤷🏻♀️). The top layer is white woodgrain paper while the next two layers are Bristol paper. Die cut the corresponding hearts from them, then ink blended Worn Lipstick and Barn Door distress oxide inks on the two Bristol panels. The darkest colour was achieved by ink blending Ruby Red dye and Black Soot distress inks directly onto the card base. White heat embossed the sentiment on it, then assembled the card to finish.
