Quick Valentine LOVE Card Set

 Hello from design team member Heidi!

Today I want to share an idea to quickly make 4 elegant Valentines.  



First choose 5 patterned papers. I chose ones that have subtle patterns, but this would work with bolder patterns, as well.

Then stamp your LOVE stamp on 4 of these.  Cut the other patterned paper into 4 2.5 inch squares. (If you are using a bold patterned paper, you may wish to white or silver heat emboss the stamp instead.)

Cut out all the letters individually, leaving a slight border.  With a black alcohol marker, create a faux matte around each letter.  (This sounds fussy, but it really doesn’t take much time, especially compared to actually cutting and glueing a black mat.). Also use a colored marker to color in each letter.  I used a dusky purple marker.

Mix up the patterns and arrange the letters on each 2.5 inch square of patterned paper. I highly recommend using liquid glue for this part so that you have time to move the letters around evenly!  Also, matte this on a 2 3/8 inch black cardstock. 

I decided to go over the letters with a sakura glitter pen to bring out the letters and make it look more valentiney.

Not just use this as the focal image of your card!  I just embossed some pink cardstock, added some ribbon and some glitter glue to finish this easy cards!  You could finish them in a simpler way or more ornate way, depending on how much time you have!

Here are my finished cards!


This stamp is part of a wedding stamp set in the I Brake for Stamps store:

The papers are also in both the IBFS and BPM stores!

Wedding Card

 Hello from design team member, Heidi.  During Valentine season, I think it is also a nice time to make a wedding card or two.  I already have those stamp sets out, and it is good to have several on hand.




This stamp is so pretty and easy to color. I just sort of randomly “dabbed” my alcohol marker over the areas in green and two colors of pink.  I then used some gel pens to emphasize and add shimmer.  

This stamp is from the Wedding Sheet stamp set from I Brake for Stamps.  This is a great set with many images and sentiments to choose from!

Valentine's Day Card

Hi everyone, Steph Ackerman here sharing some amazing stamps from Blank Page Muse and I Brake for Stamps.




I stamped the Music Background and used several heart shaped dies to die cut graduating sized hearts.
Matting each heart with black scalloped cardstock hearts, I arranged them on the card with foam adhesives for dimension.

 The sentiment was stamped, punched out and added to the smallest heart.

The full tutorial can be found on my blog.

Bloom Where You Are Planted

 Hello from design team member, Heidi.

I just recently got a stamp set from the newest release from Blank Page Muse called Gothic Garden Flowers.  It is so cute and fun.  I immediately thought they would look nice over some mixed media backgrounds.



This background was made with a gelli plate and a daisy embossing folder.  It just has a subtle texture to it.  I just stamped over the flowers in a nice black ink and it just pops so nicely.  This reminds me of a spring rain, which I am looking forward to.

This stamp set is available here:

Sentiment from Flower and Bird Sketches
