Sweetest Day

Today is Sweetest Day. Now, normally I don't celebrate or really acknowledge this holiday, but this morning I was curious as to why we have a Sweetest Day when we already have a Valentine's Day. So I did what everyone does when they need to know something, I looked it up on Wikipedia. After reading about it, I kind of have a little bit of a new found respect for this "holiday" and was even inspired to make a card for my boyfriend (even though we talked about how we don't believe in celebrating this holiday).

It was a super simple card to make, nothing crazy but I thought it turned out super cute and I think he liked it, so that's all that matters. Here it is:

A little Distress Ink treatment to a boring, white envelope
  
I used the adorable Hello Ian stamp from The Greeting Farm & colored him with
Copic Markers, then used a stencil for the background and some Stickles on the dots

Dimensional foam

Then finished off the inside with a simple sentiment using a label maker


Hope you like it and thanks for reading!   

xoxo, Lux
