Valentine's Day.. Yeah!!!

ETA: The TPE blog is hosting a new challenge. I love all their challenges, and this week's theme  is "Valentines", these two cards fall under that category. So hop over there and take a look at all the gorgeous entries.

Hello girls! I hope you are having a fabulous day. I promised on Thursday to come back again to share the other cards I made last week. So, here I’m! But before I do that, I would like to thank you for all your wonderful comments about the card I posted on Thursday. You really made my day! Now onto the cards - shall we?

The first card:
I used Bo-Bunny’s patterned paper. I fell in love with this paper immediately when I saw it at the scrapbook store. Is it adorable? I used it as part of the focal point along with the heart stamp from PTI.

ETA:  Woo hooo!!! I made the top 25 with this card!!

The sentiment is from PTI also, and it is part of the heart prints set. I added a little bit of glitter to the birds and the lady bugs to make them pop!

I wanted to add ribbon, but I thought that the ribbon would add to much distraction from the focal point. So, I decided to add a small red button instead. I do love the little touch that it adds to the card.

Now onto the second card:

This is a simple but elegant card. I pierced little holes at the top of the card near the patterned paper. I used a strip of Vintage Tee patterned paper from Basic Grey. I love, love this paper!

As you can see in this close-up, I added some glitter to the card. The heart trim is from my stash. I used white organza ribbon to tie the bow.

 

The sentiment is from PTI ~ heart prints set. I wanted to use a red button on the card, but it didn’t work for me so I ended up using a white one. I really like using together two shades of the same color. It really adds a lot of interest to the card.

Okay girls! I think that’s about all. Tomorrow is Valentines’ Day, Yeah!!!

Happy Valentine’s Day!!

My First Valentines Card!!

Happy Saturday! I wanted to share this card before I hit the road. My girl is working on a school project and needs some supplies to complete it. Guess where we are going? ~ Art supply store... Yeah!
I have been working on Valentines cards, and I am having so much fun creating them! During my long break, I had the chance to order the stamps I have been craving for. The order arrived, and immediately I went to my room to create this sweet card. Hope you like it!

I created a background on the white cardstock by stamping tiny pink  hearts. The whole inspiration came from the pink patterned paper. I noticed that the colors on it are red and pink.

Here is closer look for you to see the stamp details.

The heart and the sentiment are from PTI. The button is from my stash. I used twine to secure the button to the red heart. I just love to create cards with stamps that don't involve coloring. Oh! Don’t get me wrong, I  love to color images. But I do want to explore and incorporate new design ideas into my work.

I am determined to create more often and share it here. I have another card almost completed, but you need to come back again! In the meantime, enjoy this one! I hope this card will inspire you to start creating your Valentines cards. Thanks for all your wonderful comments; it is very nice to hear from you.

Have a restful weekend! ~ see you soon!!!

Hugs....
