"I Love You" cards - Cards for Soldiers

The Cards for Soldiers group included "I Love You" cards as part of our challenge this month. So here are just a few of my creations that will be donated.

I used a rolling marble technique (yes, I promise a tutorial very, very soon) to create the accents paper that I did using Chocolate Chip and Pixie Pink classic inks on white glossy paper.

Solid paper is Stampin' Up! Pixie Pink. I sponged the edges with Chocolate Chip classic ink and then hand wrote the I Love You! using a Chocolate Chip Stampin' Write marker.
Don't you just love the marble effect on the glossy paper. It is so easy to do and can be used for so many things: accent paper, butterflies, flowers to just name a few.

I took the marble paper and punch it out using the Stampin' Up! Scallop Paper Punch, then cut them like I did in the sunflower tutorial. Gives the flowers shape and dimension.
