Sneak Peek: All My Love + Valentine Hearts
Hello, crafty friends, it’s Leica. Today I am sharing two Valentine’s cards using products from the Pretty Pink Posh release that is available January 11th.
First, I made a slimline shaker card. I love that PPP now offers slimline dies, as this card size is still very popular. I took the first 2 large dies from the Slimline: Peekaboo Windows die set and cut a frame in white cardstock. For the back panel, I cut a 3.25” x 8.25” cardstock and used the new Lattice stencil in Faded Jeans distressed oxide. I then stamped the scalloped heart from the Valentine Hearts stamp set 5 times and colored with Copic Markers in R35/37/39, B93/91. I turned them into heart balloons by adding strings.
Next, I adhered them to the acetate using foam tape. To make a well for the shaker card, I lined the frame with foam tape and also added foam tape behind the heart balloons so that some of the gems would stay in the top part of the card. The gems I used is Sweetheart Rhinestones. I then stamped the word “Love” from the Valentine Hearts stamp set and die cut with its coordinating die. Lastly, I used glossy accents for the heart-shaped balloons.
The next card is a clean and simple card using the Heart Vines die and All My Love stamp set. First I stamped the heart from the All My Love stamp set and colored with Copic Markers. I then cut the Heart Vines die and left all the pieces together. I taped the heart that I’ve colored behind the Heart Vines die. Next, I glued on the entire piece to a 4.25″ x 5.5″ card base.
For the sentiment, I used the Happy Valentine’s Day stamp from the Love stamp set, embossed onto a black cardstock that I cut using the .25″ strip from the Simple Strips die set, and adhered on the center of the heart. Lastly, I added Glossy Black Jewels for added texture and interest.
I hope you enjoyed these cards using the new items from the upcoming January 11th release! I had so much fun creating these and I hope you are inspired to make Valentine’s cards for your family and friends!
