Hello and welcome to the Stamping Inkspirations Blog Hop where we are working with a sketch and the added instruction to provide some sparkle. I have used the Lifetime of Love stamp set to make my card.
Colours in this card are:
To recreate the lifetime of love card, you will need:
Thick Basic White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 1¼” & 4⅛”
Berry Burst card – 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Bubble Bath card – 5½” by 3¾”
Scrap Basic White and Berry Burst
Three of the stamps from the Lifetime of Love stamp set were mounted onto a single acrylic block, size D.

The images were then inked up with Berry Burst ink and randomly stamped onto the Bubble Bath panel.
Across the panel I ran 2 strips of Tear & Tape as per the sketch. I removed the backing paper to reveal the adhesive and dipped the panel, face down into my tub of Gilded Leafing.

I used a soft brush to remove the excess gilded leafing revealing the stripes. The stamped panel was glued to the Berry Burst layer and then to the Thick Basic White card front.

The sentiment, from the Go To Greetings stamp set was stamped in Berry Burst ink onto scrap Basic White card and punched out using the Double Oval Punch. The scalloped oval was punched out of scrap Berry Burst card and glued to the sentiment. The whole piece was added to the card front.
