LOVE with Rock the Block!

This morning when I checked ColourQ's challenge the colors practically jumped off the screen at me!  I LOVE these colors and I couldn't wait to do something with them.  

                                                   

I pulled out my Rock the Block stamp to use for my card.  This stamp is part of this month's special for National Papercrafting Month.   I put this stamp together with the sketch from Unscripted Sketches and came up with this card:


I had so much fun creating this simple card.   The colors I used are Blush, Sunset, Smoothie and Grey Wool.   I stamped the flowers directly on the card.   Next I stamped "LOVE" and trimmed it out using 3D Foam tape to pop it up from the card.   I added a little bling by adding Sparkles to the flower centers and also some Bitty Sparkles to LOVE.     What a "COOL" Valentine card this could be!

All Products are Close To My Heart.

Here is the sketch from Unscripted Sketches:
                                            

The Rock the Block special runs until January 31!  You get the exclusive Rock the Block stamp AND  the My Creation Collage Cube for just $15 when you place a $25 purchase in Autumn/Winter products.   What a great deal!

Now, I want to share with a cute way to make a gift card holder!  I used the Artiste Cricut Cartridge to make this holder.  It was very simple!  The Cricut cuts the card and it folds so that you can slip a gift card inside! I set the cricut to cut at 5".  I recycled an old gift card so my card is a little thick. This size worked well.   If inserting a regular card you can use 4 3/4" measurement.  "Merry Christmas" is also cut using the Artiste Cricut Cartridge.  I set the measurement to 2".               To re
