Hi Again,
I forgot to take pictures of a couple more cards made for Valentine's Day and they have gone out in the mail. These two are left over for next year.
I cut out the hearts using SU retired heart dies and remembering the rule of three. The background is Pale Plum cardstock embossed with a old Darice folder that I'll never get rid of. Isn't it wonderful? Finished with a card base of PTI white that is my go to favorite cardstock. Inside I stamped Happy Valentine's Day with a stamp from the old Taylord Expression If Hearts Could Talk set.
Am happy with this card as I so love blue and hues of purple.
I found this lovely embossed heart on blue in my "to use" folder and got to work figuring out how to play with it. I've no idea where I got it. Can you see I embellished it with a single faux diamond on the bow?

I took a circle die make the aperture for the card focal point. Next, loving the pale blue, I made the card base from SU Not Quite Navy c.s. and stamped the greeting in the same color. Inside is a die cut using an older die from Penny Black saying Be My Valentine. Fun gluing that down.
Right? I should have taken a picture.
I do like using things I have tucked away and almost forgot. I do have engough supplies to last my life time and more. LOL
Still lovely and warm as I write this post. The snow is almost all gone. We'll get more.

Beautiful Valentines using your favorite color of blue, Jeanne!
Beautiful Valentine cards! Lovely embossed background and pretty sparkly hearts! The second card is so pretty with the heart/bow image!
Two beautiful Valentines for next year, Jeanne, and good job using the laying-about bits, which I swear reproduce in the middle of the night! I'm inspired by your designs to get after my own crap, er, craft left-overs! And I think I have that same e/f! Glad you have had some lovely warm days after all those frigid temps! Hugs, Darnell
