Square Peg Hop!

Hello!!! Hope your weekend was wonderful! We had great weather here so we spent a lot of time outside enjoying the sunshine!

Tonight Melanie is hosting a blog hop with her newest set, Square Pegs. Here is the card I created for the hop:I used this set with Melanie's Hip to Be Square to create this card. I used the little xoxo stamp block to stamp each section of the background (which is from Hip to Be Square.) And I used a Copic marker to color the outside section of the window design.

The center detail strip was created by using the little design in the Square Pegs set (I think intended to decorate the Easter eggs). I LOVE the design and wanted to incorporate it in this card. So I inked up the stamp with red and black markers and then stamped.
I punched a Marvy heart to place over the center.

The "Love" sentiment is from Love Notes (I just masked off the rest of the sentiment.) Final touches include the fun ribbon and the button accents.

Materials used: Stamps-Square Pegs, Hip to be Square, Love Notes (Gina K Designs); ink-Memento black, SU! markers-black, red, soft sky ink (SU!); Red Copic marker; cardstock-white, ocean mist (Gina K Designs pure luxury); ribbon-Gina K Designs Holiday Assortment; Marvy heart punch; buttons (Gina K Designs); Hearts cuttlebug embossing folder (Provocraft); Cuttlebug (Provocraft).
