Quick and Easy Mackintosh Love card created for Chocolate Baroque

Good morning. Today I am sharing a quick and easy card made with the Mackintosh themed stamps recently featured on Hochanda. This one can be made in under 15 minutes.

 

 

Materials:

• Mackintosh Beauty, Mackintosh Windows (small flowers) and Amazing Mackintosh Words stamp sets
• Card blank (11.5 X 19cm) with subtle textured and coloured background (or stick a patterned paper to a plain card blank), scrap of stamping card
• Versafine (Onyx Black) and StazOn (Jet Black)*
• WOW embossing powder (Clear Gloss)
• Spectrum Noir Aquatints (red/pink, teal and purple) and Sparkle Pen (clear overlay)
• Ribbon (deep purple)

 

*I used StazOn to stamp the sentiment on my coated card as I wasn’t sure if Versafine would dry on the slightly shiny surface. If you are using an ‘inkable’ type of card/paper the Versafine will be fine for this.

 

How to make it:

1. Stamp the heart and flowers onto stamping card and heat emboss with clear powder. Cut out elements and colour with inks and sparkle pen.
2. Stick the ribbon to card front with double sided tape. Stamp the sentiment. Glue down the stamped embellishments with 3D glue or foam pads for added dimension.
