I Love Our Life Together

Valentine’s Day cards don’t always have to be red or pink and they don’t have to be frilly and full of hearts.  Sometimes they can be fun and silly.  Today I have a card that I think is perfect for the man in my life.  I used the So Hoppy Together stamp set from the Sale-a-Bration Brochure.  Isn’t this just adorable.  It is full of “mushiness” (is that a word), it simply says I LOVE OUR LIFE TOGETHER!!!

So Hoppy Together, Valentine's Day
I stamped the frogs with Memento ink on the Whisper White layer and colored them with Granny Apple Stampin’ Blends.  There is a “treat” coming March 1st — a set of framelits that cut the frogs out — imagine how much cuter this would be with some dimension to the frogs (I can’t wait).  I had to add googly eyes — they made the frogs come alive — don’t you think so.

Measurements:
Thick Whisper White — 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ — score at 4 1/4″
Granny Apple Green — 4″ x 5 1/4″
Whisper White — 3 3/4″ x 5″

Getting Ready for Valentine’s Day

We are just under one week away from Valentine’s Day.  This week was my Stamp & Go Class and it was a perfect time to make cards and a treat holder for Valentine’s Day.  I will share what we made over the next couple of days.

Let’s start with the Meant to Be stamp Set and Be Mine Stitched Framelits.  This is an awesome bundle and it is combined with the All My Love designer paper.  This fun fold card was “cased” from Terri Gaines.  I love, love, love this card.

Happiness Blooms Suite is full of fun bright colors and lots of spring flowers.  I love the color combinations of Calypso Coral, Pineapple Punch and Lovely Lipstick and Call Me Clover and Night of Navy.  Add in the Dot to Dot embossing folder for some fun texture background.

Bloom by Bloom Stamp Set, Happiness Blooms Designer Paper, Calypso Coral 3/8" Satin Ribbon


This card was from our Demo Make & Take to feature this wonderful suite.  The base is Petal Pink with a Whisper White layer that is embossed with the Dot to Dot folder.  The designer paper piece is 2 1/4″ x 2 3/4″.  A 2 1/4″ x 2 3/4″ layer of Whisper White for stamping.  Stamp the flower with Petal Pink, the stem with Call Me Clover that is stamped off once or twice so it is light, stamp the words with full strength Call Me Clover.  This layer is popped up on Dimensionals.  Add a piece of Calypso Coral 3/8″ Satin Ribbon 4″ long – cut banner end and tuck opposite end  under Whisper White.  Finish off with a bow tied from Whisper White Baker’s Twine.
