I Love You to the Moon

Stampin Up Embossing Paste Silver Wink of Stella Mommy Lhey Designs Hello 2016 love card idea Michelle Gleeson StampinMojo

My favorite children’s book is Guess How Much I Love You? by Sam McBratney. It so beautifully represents to our children how much we love them. To this day it makes my heart swell as I read each word.

When I want to let one of my twenty-something sons know I miss them and love them, I use this phase I love you to the moon and back. So when I saw this stamp in this fabulous font by Mommy Lhey Designs I HAD to have it.

Using my new Stampin’ Embossing Paste and a retired stencil (Hearts & Stars Decorative Masks) I created the starts on Basic Black card stock. The Stampin’ Up! Embossing Paste dries quickly which I love so I was able to then paint each star with Silver Wink of Stella for the glistening starry sky effect.

I heat embossed the sentiment in Silver Stampin’ Emboss Powder and then framed the sentiment with Silver Foil Sheet card stock then mounted to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I would love to know; What is your favorite children’s book?

I apologize for the poor photo. I wanted to get the card out and took a couple of quick pics before putting it int he mail. I hope it inspires you nonetheless. Thanks for stopping by.

  1. So sweet to send this to your adult children. My favorite book from my childhood was “The Velveteen Rabbit”. What a beautiful picture of unconditional love. I have since read a Christian book called “The Velveteen Woman” that I loved just as much.
