Heart Shaped Tags by Amanda Wilcox

A Trio of Love!

Today Amanda has created a trio of adorable tags, perfect for adorning a Valentine treat!

Each of these tags was created by cutting out the big heart using our Heart Frames Die Set. She cut hearts from pink, red and purple and then added a heart pattern onto the front of each of them using our Petite Hearts Stencil. She used a coordinating color to give a tone on tone look. She layered a  smaller scallop edged heart onto each larger heart, cut using Heart Frames Die Set.

Each tag was then adorned with an adorable love themed image, stamped from our Valentine Postage Sampler Stamp Set. She colored the images in colors to match the hearts and added some sparkle and gloss to them too. 

She also added small words from the Valentine Postage Sampler Stamp Set onto each small white heart. The tags were assembled and she added some enamel dots and burlap string. 

Now they're ready to add onto your favorite Valentine treat! What a fun way to make someone feel special. 

We hope you enjoyed this project by Amanda. You can see more over her beautiful work over on her blog, Twiddler's Nook!

Cherry Themed Valentine by Diane Morales

Love and Cherry Kisses!

Today Diane has created a sweet cherry themed card, perfect for Valentine's Day! 

For this adorable card she started by creating a cherry filled background. She used the image of the cute heart shaped cherries from our  Valentine Postage Sampler Stamp Set, stamping it repeatedly over a white panel with black ink. She cut this panel out using our Basic Frames Dies Set to give it the fun stitched edge. 

For her center image she stamped three more of the same cherry image, this time coloring them in bright red with green leaves. She cut this trio of cherries out using the coordinating Valentine Postage Sampler Die Set. She layered them over red and white circles and added them to the center of her card. 

Last, she stamped the the message "love & kisses" using words from the Valentine Postage Sampler Stamp Set and embossing them in white on a small red rectangle. 

What a great way to use the small images from this stamp set! You could make a series of these using the different images for quick and easy valentines.

MEOW-entine Cookie Card by Donna Idlet

Have a Valentine Cookie with Newton!

Today Donna is celebrating Valentine's Day (or should we say MEOW-entine's Day) with Newton getting into the cookies! 

This card features that cute kitty inside a cookie jar from our Newton’s Cookie Jar Stamp Set. Donna colored the cute kitty in gray and the cookie jar pink, perfect for the Valentine theme. She also added tiny hearts covering the cookie jar using our Petite Hearts Stencil. Then she added the sentiment "Be my meow-entine!" from our Newton's Heart Stamp Set to the front of the jar. The cookie jar image was cut out using the coordinating Newton’s Cookie Jar Die Set. 

She created a beautiful valentine themed background using papers from our new Lovely Hearts Paper Pad. She cut strips of several different heart patterns, adhering them in rows. Then she cut that panel out using our Basic Frames Die Set to give it a fun stitched edge. She also used our Basic Frames Die Set to cut out a smaller rectangle from vellum to layer behind the kitty. In the background she used a red scallop edged frame that was die cut using our Frames & Flags Die Set.

Next, she added the "xoxo" using our Valentine Word Trio Die Set and adhered it below the cat image. 

The finishing touch is a few scattered hearts. These are hearts that are created when you cut out the large heart frame using our Charming Hearts Frame Die.

This beautiful valentine card would be purr-fect to give the cat lovers in your life! To see more beautiful creations by Donna, you can visit her blog, Creative Lady!  

Postage inspired Valentine Card by Amanda Wilcox

Mail Some Love this Valentine's Day!

Today Amanda is sharing a postage inspired valentine card, perfect for mailing love to a friend!

To create this beautiful Amanda cuts out the panel of postage stamp shapes using our Postage Stamp Layout Die Set. She cuts the panel of postage stamp shapes apart so that she has individual stamp edges. She  stamps favorite images from our Valentine Postage Sampler Stamp Set onto the interior pieces of the postage stamp shapes, adding glitter for an extra touch.  She stamped and colors the postmark image from the Valentine Postage Sampler Stamp Set, cutting it out with the coordinating Valentine Postage Sampler Die Set.  She also cuts out the word "love" from our Charming Hearts Frame Die Set and adds a bit of glitter to the letters.

She used our Bokeh Hearts Stencil Set to create the gorgeous heart background. To create this pretty pattern, she started with a piece of light pink cardstock and then stenciled the two layers of hearts in different shades of pink. So pretty! 

Once all the pieces were created, she assembled the card, arranging all the pieces over the heart background and popping them up with dimensional adhesive. 

We hope you enjoyed this gorgeous valentine by Amanda. You can see more over her beautiful work over on her blog, Twiddler's Nook!
