I've been in to doing clean & simple cards lately BIG GRIN

I'm using one of the 2013 Valentine stamps from Quietfire Design - "Love" set

Side folded the white cardstock.

Die cut the heart (Spellbinder's "Nested Hearts" set) from white cardstock to use as a stencil and a mask.

Lay the die cut drop out piece on my card where I want the design to land. Taped it at one corner with removable tape. Lay the stencil down positioning it to fit around the heart. taped the stencil down with removable tape, and then removed the drop out piece. Positioned my die in the opening and sponged with Distress "Worn Lipstick", applying heavier application around the edges and lighter towards the center. Removed the die and stencil and clear embossed.

Stamped the quote with Versafine Black Onyx and clear embossed.

Placed the stencil back in place and lightly sponged some of the red all over. Removed stencil.

Embossed the background using the Cuttlebug "Everyday" combo pack "Checkerboard embossing folder and my fingers.

How to: arrange the embossing folder with your cardstock inside the folder. Work on a section of table where there is a sturdy leg. Press down with your thumbs in the area you want embossed, then put your whole weight into pressing down. You are almost balancing only on your fingers. It will leave a nice impression. Continue same procedure in other areas till complete.
