I love Cardstock Warehouse because they have SOOOO many colors to chose from. Plus it’s very high quality and comes in various weights and sizes.
Here are the two cards I created for you.
I used the Pink Lemonade Cardstock from Cardstock Warehouse and I stamped it with the Whimsy Stamps Shiplap Background stamp with the Distress Oxide Worn Lipstick ink.
Next, I used the Whimsy Stamps Connected Heart Frame Die to cut a heart in the middle of the Pink Shiplap stamped paper. Then, I cut out four connected heart frames from the Cardstock Warehouse Whipped cream paper. I glued the four hearts together. and glued them onto the front of the Pink Shiplap paper.
I stamped the cat from the Whimsy Stamps Thinking of Mew Stamp set with black copic friendly ink and colored the body with copic marker NO Neutral NO. 0 and the tale and spots with C3-Cool Gray. I added R11-pale cherry to the cheeks, ears and nose. I die cut the cat out and glued it to an action wobbler and adhered it to the center of the heart. I adhered the entire panel to a piece of Whip Cream Cardstock with some foam tape.
Next, I stamped the sentiment with black ink and adhered it to the front of the card. I stamped three hearts above the cat and colored them in with copic marker R32-Peach.
That completes this card.
I have attached a list of the products I used to create this card if you are interested.

Here is my second card I made for you. This card is a Shaker card. I used the Whimsy Stamps Thinking of Mew Stamp and Die set and the Slimline Heart Background Die. I paired it up with the Cardstock Warehouse Pretty in Pastels Paper pack and the Whip Cream paper.
First, I cut a piece of Whip Cream cardstock to 8 1/2 x 7 and then score it at 3 1/2. Then, I color the background with distress oxide inks. I used my blending brushes and just randomly put Squeezed Lemonade, Spun Sugar and Tumbled glass everywhere on the cardstock. I put Studio Katia Pastel Rainbow Confetti on top of the cardstock.
Then, I die cut the Slimline Heart background from the Cardstock Warehouse Snow Cone Paper. Then, I adhere the acetate to the back of it. I put foam tape all around the edge of the Heart background and adhere if over the confetti and attach it to the blended background.
Once I did that, I stamped my cat from the Thinking of Mew die set again and colored the cat using Copic marker C3-cool gray and C5-Cool Gray for the body and R11-pale cherry for the nose.
I cut out the cat and adhered it to the front of the card with foam tape. Then I stamped the sentiment with Distress Oxide Hickory Smoked ink and adhered them to the front of the card.
That completes this card. Don’t forget to join us on the hop for a chance to win one of two $25 gift certificates.
