Love & Courage

Handmade Love Card made with the Love & Courage Stamp Set by Stampin' Up! created by Peggy Noe of Pretty Paper Cards #love&couragestampset #stampinup #peggynoe

Have I told you that I love fall, and I love making fall cards? When I saw the Love & Courage Stamp Set, I knew I wanted to create a big sunflower 🙂

Love & Courage is a beautiful stamp set that Stampin’ Up! has released in honor of Breast Cancer. They will donate $3 to breast cancer organizations with each purchase of this stamp set.

To make a full sunflower, I stamped the circular stamp twice in Daffodil Delight ink, cut off the half with the words, and fussy cut the sunflower halves. I glued the halves together and used a Sponge Dauber to add Pumpkin Pie ink to the center of the flower. Then I stamped three more halves of the flower, fussy cut them, and used Multipurpose Liquid Glue to adhere them behind the first flower so that it looks full and fluffy! 🙂

A small circle of Pecan Pie cardstock was cut with the Stylish Shapes Dies and colored on the edges with a Sponge Dauber and Early Espresso ink. The sentiment was stamped also in Early Espresso ink on a piece of Daffodil Delight cardstock, fussy cut, and adhered on the flower center. A pretty bow and some Low Profile Dots finish off this cute card.
