Stampin' Up! Independent Demonstrator

Valentines

Valentine cards are my absolute favorite cards to make.  The cards below are just a few of the ones I made this year.  They all were recently mailed out to family and friends, so I figured I could post them now.


I love the doilies we offer this year.  


I made the card above using the Delicate Details Lace Tape, the More Amore Designer Series Paper, and the Hearts a Flutter stamp set.


Pennie, my wonderful upline, told me ways to use the Natural Composition Specialty paper, and I was inspired to start using it.  I used the brayer to roll color over the card to make the musical notes stand out.  


I was just playing with the doilies and hearts  in the card above.


Once again I used the Natural Composition paper.  I used the brayer to put color on it so the design stood out.  I also used the crumb cake stamp pad to sponge color on the doily.


I wanted to do a slightly different Valentine, so I used the Pursuit of Happiness stamp set for the verse.  I learned how to do the triple-time stamping technique from Dawn Olchefske's website at http://dostamping.typepad.com .   The card above only uses two layers, but I used the same technique she demonstrates in her wonderful video.

I hope you have a happy Valentine's Day. 

Tina
