Teddy Bear Valentine's Day Card | Kitchen Sink Stamps

Hello!  Today I have an adorable Teddy Bear Valentine's Day Card featuring several stamps from Kitchen Sink Stamps. I used Teddy Bear Wishes, Sweetheart Daisies, and Love for Ducky and Teddy Stamp sets. Be sure to check out these and all the amazing Kitchen Sink Stamps: here: https://www.kitchensinkstamps.com/shop/sc/ref.cgi?storeid=*14894f2aab5d40e710c47a8a&name=Tracy_Shultz

I used my Brother Scan and Cut to cut out the free SVG digital cut file for the Sweetheart Daisies provided by Kitchen Sink Stamps. This is a digital file for use on all electronic cutting machines and is free when you purchase any stamp set from Kitchen Sink Stamps. These offer a free die cut of your stamps. You must put the SVG file in your card before you check out. If you purchase them after you check out they cost .99 cents. They are sent directly to your email and you have a limited time to then download and save the files to your computer. I like using the SVG files because when cut out they provide a jig that helps with alignment. 
I stamped the Sweetheart Daisies with these Catherine Pooler Ink colors: 
Step 1: It's a Girl
Step 2: Do-Si-Do
Step 3: Pucker Up
Step 4: VersaFine Clair Nocturne Ink
 
For the Teddy Bear, I used the following Altenew Inks:
Step 1: Vanilla Cream
Step 2: Hazelnut
Step 3: Almond Butter
Step 4: Milk Chocolate
For the box heart shaped candy that the Teddy Bear is holding, 
I used the following Catherine Pooler inks:
Step 1: It's a Girl
Step 2: Do-Si-Do
Step 3: Sparkling Berry
Step 4: Serenade
I used the same inks listed above (for the box of candy) to ink blend both the background and the mat layers of my card. I ink blended the background with Domed Foam Blending tools. I stamped the Be My Valentine sentiment with VersaFine Clair Nocturne Ink on white cardstock.  
I used the Gina Marie Designs Big and Little Chain Reaction die 
to cut out both my mat layer and my card panel and foam tape to pop up everything on the panel including the Sweetheart Daisies, Teddy Bear, Candy box and sentiment.

The following is a list of the products I used:

Falling Confetti Hearts - Batch of Galentine's Day Cards

Hello. Tracy Shultz, The Hopeful Crafter here today with a batch of cards that I created for the Technique Junkies Design Team using the new Falling Confetti Hearts and Happy Galentine's Day stamps. You can find these at www.TechniqueJunkies.com   Use my code: TJ10Tracy to save 10% off all non-sale items

Rose Gold Embossed Falling Hearts and Sentiment

I created a how to video on my YouTube Channel:

Silver Embossed Falling Hearts and Pink Embossed Sentiment

Pink Hearts (Catherine Pooler Inks: Rouge, Pucker Up and DoSiDo)
and Pink Embossed Sentiment

Pink Ink Blended Background (Catherine Pooler Inks: DoSiDo and Pucker Up)
and Rose Gold Embossed Sentiment

Pink Falling Hearts (Catherine Pooler Inks: Rouge, DoSiDo and Pucker Up) and
Pink Embossed Sentiment

All of the card panels (backgrounds) were either heat embossed or inked. I used a piece of holographic foil cardstock as a mat beneath each panel. I embossed all the sentiments and matted them with holographic foil cardstock. All the cards are size A2 (4.25" x 5.5"). 

These stamps are from the beautiful January new release stamps:
