For the reminder, I'm using felt this time. Felt is easy to die-cut and dry emboss, but it is best to glue it to a thin piece of card stock first so that it holds it shape. That always helps it cut cleanly. I used a Love die from AliExpress.
Stamping is a small row of hearts in silver. I used the same silver (Delicata) and red ink to splatter the background. The Love die is popped up on foam for lots of dimension.
I hope you'll check out the challenge blog reminder post with new inspiring designs from our Guest Designer, Marianne (Marianne's cards 'n stuff) and our team. Then come and play along!
I'm adding this card to: AAA #108 - All you need is LOVE

In a beautiful style CAS :-) And although it's 100% CAS is very much happening on this card. Maybe it's energizing colors? Or maybe beautiful splashes? Or calming energy cards silver hearts? Everything on this card is perfect.

Such a rich red felt for that gorgeous word die. The soft silver is truly the best compliment for this CAStastic card. Your splatters are like confetti on an important celebration. BEAUTIFUL xx
Fabulous die and it looks amazing in the red felt. Thank you for the tip on popping the felt onto card to help it cut. Such a cute card, love the splats and that neat row of silver hearts x Exciting news about the new challenge Loll x
I Love your felt die cut LOVE, Loll. TFS the tip about attaching felt to CS before die cutting. I am thinking that would work well for cork too as it tends to stretch when die cut. Your added splatters, stamped tiny hearts were the perfect embellishments. Hugs...
What a perfect die to use for your felt feature! I love all the spatter! Such a drama in red and white!
Fabulous card Loll, love that word die and the splatters look amazing too :)
Hugs Kaz xx
Gorgeous card, Loll. There really is something special about red and silver together, too. Using that rich red felt for your focal point was a perfect choice. I really like this card! xo
