  • Love Heart (Two)


    A sweet, pretty in pink, Valentine, wedding or anniversary card using some new dies & paper. Looks fancy, but it’s easy to make & the bonus is you can make a second, opposite card using the leftover paper & die cuts. (That will be coming in a later post.)

    For the Inspiration Challenge (IC946) we are visiting My Red Door & their Pinterest Board where I was inspired by THIS pillow.

    For my card, I die cut the beautiful heart w/ birds once out of white & again using the pink patterned paper. I used the Love die & cut the word in the top of the white heart, allowing the pink paper to show through.  I used the pink outline of the heart w/ the white inside of the second heart. The fancy background was cut out of white & backed with the rest of the pink paper. The missing heart in the center of the pink paper is covered by the fancy white layer, so no one will know it’s even missing. The little bird bodies were also cut out in areas that wouldn’t be seen.

    The birds have white wings added & the birds as well as the big heart are popped up a bit for dimension. Three white half pearls were attached in each of the four corners.

    Thanks

  • Bear Hugs


    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
