Another Easy Valentine

Aloha, all!

We did, indeed, get all the valentine cards I’d planned for today’s class done – in record time! What makes the stamping part so easy is those clear blocks and the labels on the clear mounted stamps that let you know exactly where you’re stamping. There was not one stamp that had to be redone because something was crooked or off center. I am so hooked on these!

The card I’m posting this evening is the second of the two cards for today’s class. It uses the same wonderfully glittery paper, Sending Love Specialty Designer Series Paper. We used the same stamp from the Well Scripted stamp set, stamping the greeting over a heart from the I {Heart} Hearts stamp set. I just love the way the curve coming from the "v" wraps around the top left curve of the heart. I got this idea from a sister demonstrator but (unfortunately) I can’t remember who it was. If anyone can tell me, I’ll be sure to include here name here. It’s a beautiful use of the two stamps. Another CASEd idea is to put the two pieces of punched contrasting colors strips on the right and left side of the central Designer Series Paper section. Maybe my brain will clear later tonight and I’ll remember who gave me the ideas that I ended up putting together for this card.

Colors are Very Vanilla, Real Red and Pretty in Pink. Next week’s Valentine’s colors are going to be in the purple family. But I’ve still got a few more ideas for the red and pink and will be showing them off between now and then.

Oh–and all of this is fron the 2010 Occasions Mini Catalog! Just let me know if you need your very own copy!!
