"All that and a bag of chips" Handmade Valentine's Day Greeting Card

Potato Chip Valentine Card

Hi everyone! Natasha of @PoliteCreations, joining you with a fun card that would be perfect for your Valentine or Galentine! Grab a snack and let's get started!

Supplies:

Cut the chip bag and chips from cardstock. The base of the bag is in Hot Pink, while the sections of the bag are from Cherry and Flamingo. I wanted this to be bright and fun, with traditional Valentine's Day colors. The chips are cut from Madero Beach. I cut the 3 regular potato chip dies twice for a total of 6 chips. I thought the little speckles in the paper would look more like real potato chips!

Using a small blending brush, add a little yellow ink to the edges of the chips so they look cooked. I added various amounts on each one to make them look more like actual chips. It was at this point that I started wishing I had a bag of chips to snack on... 

Emboss a panel of Starch White using the embossing folder, and then cut it down to a 3 ¾ x 5-inch panel. 

Assemble the chip bag using wet glue. Once it's dry, use a sentiment and stamp directly onto the chip bag. Heat emboss using white embossing powder to make it really pop!

Now it's time to assemble the card. I used foam tape to attach my die cuts to the card, varying the foam thickness to make things look more realistic. The chip bag has thinner foam adhesive than the chips. Once complete, pop the panel onto an A2 card base of Hot Pink using more foam tape.
