Red Is The Color of Love - Valentine's Day Card

I know, I know, enough with the mushy, Valentine's Day stuff already. Ok -this is the last one, until next year, I promise.
This one is great for anyone - girlfriend, boyfriend, husband, wife or family member.
To make a Valentine's Day card like this one, you will need:
-Pre-made card or card stock of your choice (I used pink.)
-Valentine patterned paper (I used that cool embossed flower one again from Archiver's scrapbooking store.)
-Red card stock (I used a pre-made round piece with a cut scalloped edge.)
-Valentine-themed rubber stamp (I used a "love" one and some flourish ones - also from Archiver's.)
-Pink embossing ink
-Clear embossing powder
-Pink rhinestones

Happy creating!

Love Is In Bloom - Valentine's Day Card

This was a really cute little Valentine. The paper on the outside had some embossed parts- like on the petals of the flower (it came from Archiver's scrapbooking store). Great for a girlfriend or a special someone. I gave this one to my mom.
To make a card like this one, you will need:
-Pre-made white greeting card (or card stock if you prefer to make your own, your choice)
-2 Coordinating papers (there is one with stripes that I mounted on the inside fold)
-Valentine's/Love related rubber stamp
-Embossing powder - clear
-Pink embossing ink
-Embossing heat tool (as mentioned in previous posts, use an embossing tool and not a hair dryer. In my experience, the hair dryer will not work.)
- Fabric ribbon in coordinating color
-Hole punch

When it comes to showing someone that you care, a hand-made card means so much more.
Happy creating!

Daddy's Girl Valentine's Day Card


This is a great little card that I made for my Dad this past Valentine's Day. No matter how old you are, or how old you dad is, it's never too late to let him know that you still think of him on Valentine's Day.
Here is what you'll need to make a card like this:
- Pre-made white card (or white card stock if you prefer to make your own)
- Valentine's related stamp (I used the word "Love")
- Ink that can be embossed
-Embossing heat tool (FYI- a hair dryer will NOT work and it's safer to use a heat tool)
-Embossing powder (I used one with colored glitter, but you could use black or whatever color will show up on red)
-hole punch
-Red card stock
-Green card stock - I used one that was pre-cut with a scalloped edge
-Red rhinestones
-Red fabric ribbon
-Velum Valentine/love text (I used one about my Dad, but you could handwrite a message or use another for of text like a rub-on)

Assembly is pretty simple, but if you have questions in general or about the embossing, just ask!
Happy creating!
