Handmade Valentine’s Card

Recently I saw a quote on Pinterest and it said, “I love you so much…I’d use my best patterned paper on a card for you!” When creating a handmade Valentine’s Card you are telling that person they are very special, and loved.  In today’s 10th day of Valentine’s project, Robbie creates a cute Valentine’s card.  If you missed our last projects, scroll down and click on the links on the previous projects.

To Begin….

To make today’s card start with a piece of Flirty Falmingo card base.  Take the Detailed Trip punch and round the corners of the card base.  Cut the Basic Black layer and the whisper white layer and round both card stock corners.  Use the Sunshine Wishes thinlits and cut out a heart from the lower right hand corner of the Whisper White layer.  Add a piece of All My Best designer series paper on the back of the Whisper White layer to cover the hole.

Follow with…

Handmade Valentine's Card

Attach your Whisper White layer to the Basic Black layer.  Add a strip of the same designer series paper to the left hand edge of the Whisper White layer.  Tie some Whisper White baker’s twin down the same side and tie a bow at the top.  Attach these layers to the card base.  Using the Sunshine Wishes thinlits and some Flirty Flamingo card stock, cut out a heart.  Add Glue to the back of the cut out and inlay it into the opening on the Whisper White layer.

 

 

Handmade Valentine's Card

End with….

Take the stamp from the Accented Blooms stamp set and using your Flirty Flamingo marker, ink up just the words you want to use.  Stamp it onto a scrap of Whisper White card stock.  Use the Classic Label punch to punch it out.  Add this punch to a scrap of Flirty Flamingo card stock.  Use your snips to trim around it to get a larger shape like the one the sentiment is on.  Add this sentiment to your card base using dimensionals.  So what do you think about the completed How About a Cute Handmade Valentine Card creation?

DIY Valentine’s Day Pillow Box Gift Card Holder

Wow! I can’t believe we have made it to Day 9 of our 12 Days of Valentine’s! So far we have shared 6 cards and 2 gifts to make for that special someone in your life.  But what happens when you have that person that deserves more than just chocolate and flowers.  Maybe that special person needs a gift card to the spa? Well I have you covered because today I am sharing a DIY Valentine’s Day pillow box gift card holder.

You see when I saw the grapefruit grove & lovely lipstick foil sheets, I could not resist turning it into a pillow box to hold a gift card.  Now I know what you are thinking, that Pizza, Pizza gift card is no spa gift card.  I didn’t have one on hand and I wanted you to get the idea that a gift card can fit in it.  I also used the garden impression designer series paper, which I thought worked perfectly for Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day.  Finally, I added some ribbon as an added touch and voila! You have a nice glittery pillow gift card holder.

Abstract impressions stamp set and the garden impressions designers series paper helped create this card.  I love how this dsp compliments with the abstractions impressions stamp.  The thing I love the most is how versatile this dsp is. I goes well for with the Valentine’s theme, Mother’s Day, wedding, or an everyday occasions such as a birthday.

To add the added touch and bling I love how the glitter enamel dots compliments the melon mambo ink and flirty flamingo ink.  For the leaves I used garden green and lemon lime twist ink.  To finish off the wreath I use the gold metallic edge ribbon.

Welcome to Day 3 of 12 Days of Valentine’s Day.  If you missed the first two days scroll down to click the links below. Today I am going to share a DIY Valentine’s Day Shaker Card.

DIY Valentine's Day Shaker Card

To make this card I used whisper white cardstock for the background.  For the frame of the card I used the garden impressions designers series paper.  I took the heart and the love framelit from the sunshine wishes framelits, some rose glimmer paper for the heart, and a window sheet to cover the gap.  I then used the sale-a-bration grapefruit grove & lovely lipstick foil sheet. Foam was used to adhere the dsp to the card base and I stamped the sentiment and used the small dimensions to place on the card.  Voila! A sparkly Valentine’s Day shaker card.

DIY Dandelion Wishes Valentine card

I hope you enjoyed yesterday’s Sunshine Wishes Valentine’s card.  As I mentioned yesterday, Robbie from creationsinpaper.com and I have joined forces to bring you 12 Days of Valentine’s.  If you missed the 1st Day of Valentine’s then check it out here. Day 2 is a simple DIY card with dandelion wishes valentine.

DIY Dandelion Wishes Valentine Card

Today’s card was created by Robbie Rubala and she used the All My Love designer series paper as it gives the warm fuzzy feeling of valentine’s day.  This paper is much prettier in person. It compliments nicely with the Dandelion Wishes stamp set and blends well with the Flirty Flamingo card base.  To add to the background of the dandelion, Robbie used the dots in Beauty Abounds stamp set to create the bokeh effect.  A large rhinestone in the center of the  dandelion gives it the sparkle it needs. The finishing touch of the sentiment, comes from the same Dandelion’s wishes stamp set.  What a way to tell someone special that they mean the world to you.  It fits in perfectly with Valentine’s.

DIY Valentine’s Day Sunshine Wishes

Happy New Years to everyone! I hope you had a relaxing holiday.  Now that the kids are officially back to school, it is time to take down the Christmas decorations and try to return to regular routine.  But we know that is no always the case because in a blink of an eye Valentine’s Day will be here.  I know what you are thinking, “Isn’t it too early to think of Valentine’s?” I mean some of us have not even taken down the Christmas decorations.  Trust me I am one of those people.  I still have my tree up and that is on my to do list this week.

But I’ve got you covered, because I am going to save you the time to look for any last minute card/treat making ideas to make.  For the next 12 days, Robbie Rubala from creationsinpaper.com and I will be sharing some quick and simple cards and treat holders that you can make for that special someone in your life.

DIY Valentine's Day Sunshine Wishes

Now I need to share that I normally do not buy too many stamps or designers series paper from Stampin’ Up that have a Valentine’s theme to it.  It is not because I do not like them, it’s just that I do not make many Valentine’s projects.  Instead I use what I have on hand.  You see to make this simple project all I used was some blushing bride cardstock, sunshine sayings stamp set, Sunshine Wishes framelits, and the grapefruit grove & lovely lipstick foil sheets (free salabration paper). Quick and easy!
