Last Minute Manda ~ Clipart using Valentine Unicorns

Hi Crafty Friends,
I'm back with another clipart project using Last Minute Manda's adorableValentine Unicorns set.  You can find it in her ETSY store HERE.Be sure to use my discount code during your purchase; LARELYN25.

I tucked the sweet unicorn in Jaded Blossom's Build a Booth Die.  I thought the JB Valentine Add Ons were perfect.  I cut  out the unicorn using my Scan N Cut and added a bit of liquid Pixie Dust for some shine.  
Be sure to visit the Last Minute Manda FaceBook page to see projects made from her digital art and clipart.  I have made an album featuring all of my clipart projects HERE.
See you next Tuesday with another Last Minute Manda clipart project.

Cut it Up Challenge #270 ~ LOVE

Hi Crafty Friends,
Time for another challenge at Cut it Up.
The challenge theme is LOVE and I have to say how much I "love" the amazing response we've had to our first non-sponsored post of the new year!  Thank you all who took the time to share your projects with us.
I'm using an Altenew 3D embossing folder and two die cuts from LaLa Land Crafts for my card.

I used Neenah Solar White Heavy paper for this project.  I wanted the embossing to be deep and I wanted the sentiment to pop even though it's white on white.  I just had to add a touch of color so I used a red glimmer card stock.  I also cut the sentiment 3 times and stacked them for a little more dimension.
I hope you'll join us for this challenge.  The LOVE theme is open to your interpretation.
