Twilight Blog hop
Today the New Moon movie is coming out. The kids and I have been waiting for it to come out since we came out of the Twilight movie. I LOVED the books! I need to reread them badly. I has been over a year.
To celebrate the release of the second movie Twilight Tuesday is hosting a HUGE blog hop. Make sure you head on over and check out the list of the 53 blogs that are participating.
For my card I used Our Craft Lounge’s Love Notes as well as Stamp Insanities Otherwordly Loves.
My card base was cut with the Clear Scallop Square Big shot die from Stampin’ Up! out of Chocolate Chip cardstock. It was sponged with Walnut Stain ink. A 3 7/8″ square of Coastal - Curious Double Take paper was distressed, sponged with Vintage Photo ink and stitched to the card base.
A 3″ square of Sundress paper was stitched to a Vanilla cardstock piece that was cut and embossed with Square Nestabilities and sponged with Vintage Photo ink. The vertical layer is 1 1/8″ wide. The word Edwards was stamped all over in Vintage Photo ink. Next it was embossed with the Victoria Cuttlebug Folder, sponged with Vintage Photo ink and stitched around the edges.
The main panel is a 1 3/8″ x 3″ piece of Very Vanilla cardstock. It was first stamped with the solid background from Love notes in Antique Linen ink. That was overstamped alternating with the word Love from Love notes, and Edward from the Otherwordly Loves set. It’s barely visible, but it adds just enough texture to the panel. The sentiment was stamped in Walnut Stain ink. The panel was layered on a sponged scallop long Chocolate Chip rectangle cut with Nestabilities.
I added a Cream Silk Ribbon bow on the bottom right of the panel and Kaiser Rhinestones underneath the sentiment. To finish off the card, I stamped a heart from Love Notes in Walnut Stain, sponged it with Fired Brick , cut it out, added Crystal Effect and Dazzling Diamond glitter.
Make sure you check out the other Twilight blog posts! As much as I LOVE the books and the first movie, I won’t be going to the theater today. I never go the first week. I don’t like overcrowded theaters.
Please check my previous blog post for a chance to win Our Craft Lounge’s new Love Note set. All you have to do is leave a comment at the previous post.
Have a wonderful day! Hugs and smiles
