Hedgehog and Hearts for Valentine’s Day

Hedgehog and Hearts for Valentine’s Day

(Inside: Wishing you every happiness, today and always.)

This card features this cute little guy from a die set I purchased on Amazon as well as a background cover die that I embossed (instead of cut as I had done HERE).

This animal die set includes a number of cute animals, but I just wanted to mention that there is a bit of fussy cutting and drawing/coloring required for some of the layers on each.

The frame is from the “Heart Card Sketcher” set (FRA-DIE-09308) from Frantic Stamper. The inside sentiment is from the “Elegant Florals” set from Gina K Designs, and the greeting on the front was computer generated (CK Footnote; 15pt font).

Thanks for checking out my card project!

Four Block Valentine’s Day Card

Four Block Valentine’s Day Card

(Inside: Wishing you every happiness, today and always.)

I am always excited when I come across an interesting (and simple!) layout to try. And with all the patterned paper I have that is waiting to be used, I think this one is a winner! Thanks Natasha Foote!

Recollections “Tan Hearts” and a piece from The Paper Studio “Dalmuti” card stock pack (no longer available?) were used for the blocks along with Stampin’ Up Tip Top Taupe, GKD Innocent Pink, and Recollections Dove White. The greeting panel was made with an amazon set and the EK “Real Estate Sign” punch. Pieces cut with the “Mini Fanciful Flourish left” die by Cheery Lynn Designs were used to embellish.

The inside greeting is from the “Elegant Florals” stamp set from Gina K Designs.

I made some without the pink as well.

Holographic Hearts Valentine’s Day Card

Holographic Hearts Valentine’s Day Card

(Inside: have a happy day!)

Yesterday, I shared a “cute” Valentine’s Day card. Here is a more “grown-up” design …

Holographic Hearts paper from The Paper Studio was used behind a pierced heart cover die. I offset the white greeting die cut with the black, adhered it to the card front, and this card was complete. (And I have a pile of little white hearts for another project!)

Teddy Bear Valentine

Teddy Bear Valentine

(Inside: Happy Valentine’s Day!)

This cute little guy is ready to deliver Valentine’s Day wishes to my kadults (my adult children who are still young at heart)!

The pieces for the bear were cut from The Paper Studio’s Textured Leather, Sand Photo, and Holographic Hearts papers (along with a scrap of black). The balloon die was from the Balloons set (#FBD119) by Paper Smooches. The stitched background is unbranded.

This holographic paper looks quite different depending on how the light hits it:

This was a fun card to make!

Hearts Alive Valentine’s Day Card (and a few others)

Heart’s Alive Valentine’s Day Cards (and a few others)

(inside: Wishing you a Happy Day Happy Valentine’s Day)

This card features some pretty rose gold holographic card stock from DCWV and the “Hearts Alive Wafer Die” (#S419) from Simon Says Stamp. This die is fun because you can back it with any kind of paper or even make it into a shaker panel! Of course I had to add texture to the white with the Subtle embossing folder from Stampin’ Up (retired) which is, by far, my FAVORITE folder as I don’t have to spend extra on more expensive, textured card stock! I offset grey kraft card stock behind the white to create a bit of a shadow.

The inside sentiment came from two sets, the “Whimsical Wishes” set (retired?) from Gina K Designs and the “Miniature Type” set from Clearly Besotted, and was stamped with GKD Soft Stone ink.

I also came across a few cards I had made a while ago but never posted…

This super simple card design features the love frame die from Impressions Obsession (Die #124-Z) along with Core’dinations Kraft Small Dots (#320013) card stock, Recollections white card stock, Subtle Embossing Folder from Stampin’ Up (retired), a Creatives Memories corner rounder, and a Computer Generated Greeting.

I added a layer of red to this one…

And finally…

This last one (5 1/2″ square) features a debossed panel made with the 5″ x 7″ Cuttlebug “Cross My Heart” embossing folder (no longer available) and an unmarked die I purchased on Amazon a while back. The same computer generated greeting was used as on the cards above.
