Valentines Cards

Over the next three weeks I will be sharing handmade Valentine Cards I have made for friends and family.  I'm not going to give away which cards are for who, because I never know who's snooping on my blog and might see their card before they receive it. 🥰

For the two cards I'm showing today, I used the same layout, papers, and colors, but different images. The image used in this card is an old retired Stampin' Up! card called "Pun Fun".

I stamped the image and colored it in with Copic markers then used Spellbinders Nestabilities to cut a plain square panel out.  I then popped that panel up on a heart panel also cut with a  Spellbinder's die. Then using a larger square die, I cut a third panel out of pink.

For the background, I embossed a white card stock panel with a heart Cuttlebug folder and then adhered that panel to a black card panel to make everything pop.  I finished the card by wrapping a think pink ribbon through two of the open hearts and tying it with a bow.

My next card uses all the same dies, but a different embellishment, image, and color.



The image in this card was a free stamp I received when I purchased a card making magazine years ago.  I don't normally purchase magazines (who needs to when everything is free on the web now?), but when the stamp set is the price of the magazine, why not?

I followed all the same principles that I did in making the first card, except this time I used a red panel, and I added a cute red heart button.  I put the sentiment on a tiny tag.

Whenever I create a card I really like, sometimes while all the same supplies are already out, I'll quickly make a few more cards.  If you ever need to mass produce cards, this is a great way to save time, rather than making every card unique.
