CASE-ing a little of this and a little of that with my card today. SimonSaysStamp released some layering heart stencils and I decided to make my own stencils using my Spellbinders Classic Hearts dies. They aren’t as large as the SSS stencils but they worked. My design was a CASE of Yana Smakula’s card using the SSS stencil with angled layered card stock. Sentiment was from an unkown stamp set in my stash. The hearts looks like they needed more attention so I stamped the Taylored Expressions Good Hearted background stamp over the hearts using versamark ink and then added a splat her and a splat there.
The Double D Challenge is Blue & White Winter to which I’ll be sharing my card. February is a winter month so my blue hearts will meet the challenge theme.

Thanks for stopping in for a peek. Take care, stay warm and be safe.
Beautiful card, Gayle. Such pretty blues!
Lovely card. You did a great job creating your own stencils. The heart background over the hearts is perfect touch.

P.S. Are you aware of the new color challenge that began just this month? It’s called COLORFUL OPTIONS CHALLENGE and the January color is BLUE … I hope you’ll come share this beauty with us.
Lovely! I like your created stencils. Have to give this a try.
Beautiful card! Love how you did the stencils!
Beautiful!!! How creative to use dies to make your own stencils. I never thought of blue & white for Valentines, but I will now.
How great that you created your own stencils. You did a good job with them too. Love the blend of different blues and the angled design at the back.
Great idea to add the stamped hearts to your stenciled hearst; love the tone on tone look! Love your angled background panel as well.
Gayle, this is so beautiful. I love the blues and the way you have it laid out.
