Speedy Fox and Friends CH#144

Welcome! Thank you for stopping by my blog today. We have a new challenge at Speedy Fox and Friends ~ Doodle a Frame . This is a fun technique for a card. I do not consider myself an "artist" but anyone can doodle a frame. I hope you will come by and upload your creation for this weeks challenge
Here I am using Love, Love, Love
 Mark's Finest Papers Stamp Set.

You can purchase this Stamp Set 
at the store by clicking  HERE.
Look at all of the wonderful stamps 
you will receive in this collection.

The Love, Love, Love is a fantastic set of stamps and I am happy to have this set in my collection. I think this checkered heart is adorable!

After I stamped the heart on white cardstock,  I used a Spectrum Noir pink marker and a red extra fine sharpie to doodle a frame around the heart.

Then I fussy cut around the heart and added pop-up tape to the back to apply the heart frame to the mat. The border and the sentiment are also included in the Love, Love, Love stamp set. 

I hope you will join me for this weeks challenge at Speedy Fox and Friends ~ Doodle a Frame.

You could win a set of Mark's Finest Papers stamps for your entry. See you there!
