    A cute, fun card with 4 fancy windows for adding different images. Perfect for a Valentine card, especially for a best friend or your favorite kids, grandkids or neighbor kids.

    A big congrats to Sherri, the newest Favorite Stamper (FS884)! She has a beautiful scrapbook gallery & I chose THIS page to case. I kept the Beary theme and divided layout, but used stamps instead of photos & made mine a Valentine card.

    My little Valentine uses some new, soon to be released images. I die cut the 4 window once out of red & once in white. The little white insets were stamped w/ the images & colored. The little heart candy box, envelope & open card were done separately & cut out. The greeting was stamped on a narrow strip & attached across the middle of the red frame.

    I added another layer behind the red frame to elevate it just a bit from the inset images.
    Here are the Copics I used:

  • I Adore You


    An easy to make card for an anniversary or Valentine’s Day for a special someone. New, soon to be released hearts die & greeting are fun to use, pretty to look at it & easy to change the colors to suit the occasion.

    X3!
    For the Inspiration Challenge (IC945) we are visiting Notebook Therapy & their Pinterest Boards. I found THIS picture for my inspiration.

    My card is fairly easy. I die cut a white panel w/ the hearts on the right side. I replaced the left side after it was cut & used a plain rectangle to cut that side. I also cut some white card board to layer behind it & the heart cut outs before attaching them to a piece of purple designer paper.

    The greeting was cut using an offset tag die & I used the same die to cut the purple layer. Since they were same size, I trimmed down the white layer a bit to show the purple layer. Some extra hearts were cut out of the purple and stacked on card board before attaching to the card.

    Thanks

  • Most of All You


    A very quick & easy card w/ lots of possibilities. Change the small words of the greeting or the flower colors & you have a different card. Lots of different small greetings in this set as well as a coordinating stencil to color the flower.

    A big congrats to Girlia, the newest Featured Stamper (FS859)! She has a lovely gallery & I cased THIS pair of cards. I kept the layout w/ the quilted look bg & big flower, but I used stamps & a stencil instead of die cut flower & a divided greeting instead of a monogram.

    My card is very easy & quick. I used a quilted look piercing die on the white background. The big flower was stamped & I used a 3 part stencil to sponge the ink colors onto the flower before die cutting it. The YOU part is a stamp/die combo that comes w/ the flower set & I added the rest of the greeting on a small tag.

    I used a shimmer spray on the flower, but it’s very hard to tell in the pictures. The center part of the flower was stamped again, stenciled & fussy cut to pop up on top of the original flower.

    Thanks so much for stopping by!
