Plain Ol' stamping

Hey there! Today I am back with a quick..well relatively quick card using just stamps..no fancy watercoloring or shading using alcohol markers..just some stamps and ink pads. 
I have noticed that I am mostly using my zigs or my finecolor markers to make cards..and my ink pads were getting neglected..so for this anniversary card I decided to use my oldest stamp set..one which I had bought when I was just starting card making and had ignored it since then...But now no more :) .. I got out my stamps and my Kaisercraft pigments ink cubes and got stamping..
Since this was to be an aniversary card..I created a heart shaped outline using one of my heart dies and selected a few of the flower and leaf stamps and just went at it..
As mentioned, the card is pretty simple with major focus on stamping.. I just filled in the outline till I was happy. To finish it further, I added few dots using a gold gel pen.
I then stamped the sentiment using versamark ink and heat embossed using gold embossing powder. Since the card was so simple, I decided to dress up the card base a bit. Using some silver glitter washi tape I created a border along the two edges of  the card base. I then adhered the card panel using some foam tape. Few heart sequins finished the job. :)

Here is the finished card..


Like the simple look..hope the recipient likes it too! 


Thanks for stopping by!
