Hogs & Kisses Cards with Candice and Rachel

Welcome, I hope you all had a fabulous Holiday season!  Candice with you today and I am jumping right into my favorite crafting holiday, Valentine's Day! I think it is all the red and pinks I get to play with and those colors are perfect for the Hogs & Kissed set I used on my treat bag!

I used these fun Sunny Studio products for my treat bag:

• Hogs & Kisses stamps & coordinating dies
• Sweet Treat Bag dies
• Sweet Word die
• Basic Mini Shape dies (large heart)
• Basic Mini Shape dies II (smaller hearts)
• Subtle Grey Tones 6x6 paper pack
• Plane Awesome stamps (sending sentiment)

To create the bag base, I followed the instructions that you can find here. They are very easy to follow and you can create 3 styles with one die set! The heart pattern paper came from the versatile Subtle Grey Tones pack.

Next, I die cut multiples of the sweet word, topping them with white cardstock and pink & red velvet paper. I then stamped the piggy twice, colored them with Copic markers, and used the coordinating dies to cut out.

I then stamped the Quote bubble and sentiment and cut out using the coordinating dies.  For the glitter hearts, I used the heart dies found in the Basic Mini Shape dies & Basic Mini Shape dies II. I tend to hold onto every little scrap of glitter paper just for this use with the little dies! I used foam tape to adhere them on both sides of the bag. To finish, I simply knotted some white rick rack through the holes.

Thank you for stopping by!

Hello friends! It's Rachel here with a slimline Valentine card that I made featuring the Hogs & Kisses Stamp Set. I love how you can use this cute set for both winter scenes as well as a variety of other seasons. I combined this set with the Bold Balloons Stamp Set for a fun-filled scene.

To start my card, I first trimmed a piece of Neenah Solar White Card Stock to 3.5" x 8.5" and blended it with Picked Raspberry and Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Inks. I splattered this blending with water using a #4 paint brush and then added some diluted pink and white watercolor paints for added interest.

I trimmed a few pieces of white card stock to 3.5" x various heights and cut three pieces using the Fluffy Clouds Border Dies. I adhered these to the bottom portion of my card and then stamped my sentiment onto the lower right side of the front cloud before adding it to my card with some 3D Foam Adhesive Tape. 

For my little pig, I stamped him/her with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink onto another piece of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock and colored them with Copic Sketch Markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut it out. I used some Altenew Inks to stamp my balloons. (Inks Used: Altenew Tea Party Mini Cube Set, Red Sunset Mini Cube Set, and the Cherry Blossom Mini Cube Set) Lastly, I added some sparkly silver baker's twine for my balloon strings.

Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a wonderful weekend!
