LOVE for all you do

Good morning!

Remember this cute little mini card from a few days ago?



Well I always like to think of ways to make holiday sets work for other occasions, so it occurred to me to try to make more of my "non-holiday" sets work for holidays. TIP: Try this!! Using sets with colors you might not think of at first really helps make your collection so much more versatile.

I made some quick changes to the color scheme and waalaa! A cute little Valentine perfect for the one you love.




You can make it, too!
- Cardstock used was Chocolate Chip, Real Red & Whisper White
- Ink used was Pretty in Pink & Real Red
- And then a little extra touch with the Hemp Twine and a dimensional to pop up the single Real Red flower
- The pretty flower images are from the For All You Do stamp set


Have fun making your Valentine's! Please let me know if you have any questions.

For All You Do - mini square card!



This cute little square card was so easy, fun & QUICK to make!

- Start with a Not Quite Navy base
- Stamp the little square flower image from For All You Do in Bashful Blue & cut it out close to the edge,leaving a little bit of a white border all the way around. Then stamp the little flower from For All You in Summer Sun and cut out.
- Attach the Bashful Blue image to Kraft cardstock (my favorite!)
- Then attach your cute little flower with part of a dimensional and tie a piece of twine around the Kraft paper.
- Attach it to the base (I like to use SNAIL adhesive best for this), decorate an envelope to match and you're done!

... I think next we should try to make a Valentine's Day inspired card using the same easy (yet impressive!) design. What do you think?

Check back for it!
