Valentine Theme Week- Day 3
Hello, friends!
Today we have Liz joining us for a post full of Valentine inspiration. She always creates the most darling cards and lately, she has been a storm of Valentine goodness to share with you all.
I can’t get enough of these new Scallop Square Frames, so I kept the dies together and ran it through the die cutting machine using 2 different colors along with a silver glitter card stock. It’s a great way to interchange different color combinations and fits like a perfect puzzle.
Next, I cut an acetate square size (3 7/8″) to use as my base to adhere the frames together and proceeded to create a shaker using these wonderful 6mm Flat Sweetheart sequin mix and new Mini Star Confetti sequins in Silver and Iridescent color. Afterwards, I pulled out this cute adorable little bunny from the Holiday Pals set along with the tiny bow.
Since I’m in love with these stitched scallops as well from the Stitched Borders 1 collection, I couldn’t resist but to add it to this card. Last but not least, I used this cute little Stitched Speech Bubble to add a sentiment saying “You’re the best”.
I must admit this is one of my favorite sets: Darling Friends with this big balloon and adorable little bunny so I decided to make another shaker card using the Storybook 1 die and create a scene on the outside vs. on the inside. Also, if you notice that little tiny red heart on the basket, it’s from the Mini Tags die collection.
Here, I mixed in this fabulous 4mm Sweetheart mix along with some new little Mini Heart sequins in Silver and Iridescent. I can’t tell you how much I love these and thinking of all the ways to use, especially love their size and sparkles. Also, if your wondering where those tiny envelopes with the little red heart are from, it’s from the new Birdie Notes stamp set and boy let me tell you….it’s so darn cute.
This brings me to my last card where I used the new Birdie Notes stamp set (the free gift in the recent birthday celebration) to create this Valentine card filled with hearts. Isn’t this birdie adorable? The sentiment is also from the same set and can be used all year round and the little tiny bow that I colored in red comes from the Holiday Pals set again.
As you can tell, l used this cute little scallop again from the Stitched Borders 1 collection, but before that, I’ll share with you on how I created this little mini shaker where I used the Stitched Photo Frames. This one is the biggest size out of the three you get in the collection measuring approximately 2 1/4 ” wide by 2 3/4″ tall.
After I die cut the frame, I embossed the sentiment using white embossing powder and added a piece of acetate. Next, I added some fun foam to create the height needed for the shaker. Than comes the fun part which is adding in these wonderful 4mm sparkling clear sequins in the center.
Once I pieced it all together, I added on top of the acetate, these cute new little Mini Hearts in Gold along with the tiny envelopes. Last but not least, I added this adorable birdie that was colored in pink using foam mount tape to add some more dimension.
