Valentine's Wrap Up!


Well I have been a bit behind on my blogging this week.  It's been a busy one for sure!  We have stamp club coming up this Saturday and the Birthday Bash Card Class next Saturday.  I have to spend lots of time getting ready!  Here are a bunch of Valentine's cards that I didn't have a chance to post before Feb. 14th!

First up is this pretty Wisteria Wonder/Pear Pizzazz card.  


Stampin' Supplies:
Cardstock: Wisteria Wonder, Pear Pizzazz, Whisper White
DSP: 2010-2012 In Colors Designer paper
Stamps: P.S., I Love You
Inks: Pear Pizzazz, Wisteria Wonder
Other: Pear Pizzazz seam binding, Modern Label punch, Heart framelits (smallest one)

This next card was an experiment for me.  I normally use this embossing folder on Christmas projects because I think the flowers resemble poinsettias so much.  I think it works for a Valentine, don't you?


Stampin' Supplies:
Cardstock: Blushing Bride Textured, Chocolate Chip, Pear Pizzazz, Whisper White
Stamps: P.S. I Love You
Ink: Chocolate Chip, Pear Pizzazz, Pretty in Pink
Other: Modern Label punch, Fashionable Hearts Embosslit, Petals-a-Plenty Textured Impressions Embossing Folder

Here's a quick and easy card that I found here on Splitcoast Stampers.  It was so cute and simple that I could not resist CASEing it!


Here is a close up so that you can see the scoring detail.  This would be such a quick and easy mass producible card.


Stampin' Supplies:
Cardstock: Whisper White
Stamp: Candy Conversations
Ink: Real Red, Early Espresso (Stampin' Write Markers)


And finally the last card!  I was so excited to get to play with the brand new Blushing Bride Smooch spray from the Occasions Mini catalog.  I love, love, love the effect!!!




Stampin' Supplies:
Cardstock: Cherry Cobbler, Very Vanilla
Ink: Cherry Cobbler, Basic Black
Stamps: P.S. I Love You
Other: Hearts Framelits, 1/2" Circle Punch, Blushing Bride 3/8" Pleated Satin Ribbon, Blushing Bride Smooch

As they say, all good things must come to an end!  Today is the last day of the Love is in the Air Class posts.  Now I have to get busy photographing the projects for this Saturday's Simply Scored class!  This card was inspired by one that I saw on Stampin' Connection.  I wish I could remember who, but demos can search for Candy Conversations and a similar card should appear in the search results.  It was too pretty not to remake!

Love is in the Air Class Part 2

I'm back with the second project from my Love is in the Air class!  I went for a very non-traditional look for this card.  It's a little edgy and perfect for those guys in your life!  We used the new Cherry Cobbler Dazzling Details glitter glue which just cannot be beat for adding a bit of sparkle to your projects!  Here's a tip for getting a really crisp solid black stamped image...use Staz-On black instead of the Basic Black ink pad.

I outlined one heart using the Real Red Stampin' Write marker for a little added detail!

Card Interior:
Stampin' Supplies:

Cardstock: Basic Gray, Whisper White, Basic Black, Brushed Silver
Ink: Basic Gray, Staz On Black, Real Red (marker)                                   
Whisper White A2 Envelope
Stamps: P.S., I Love You
Paper Trimmer
Cherry Cobbler Dazzling Details
