Valentine Card for my Girls

I wanted a Valentine card that was not childish or super feminine because my 10 year old is not girly but my 7 year old does like Holidays.

So I look over Pinterest and found this card, I knew exactly what die I wanted to use. One from the November Spellbinders card kit. it was a deer but it also had small flowers.

I used all textured card stock from their card kits because I do love me some texture every now and then.

 These are the heart dies that I have, they are from Stampin UP and are retired but I use what I have.

 I cut a panel that is 4 inches by 5 1/4 out of white textured card stock.

I used a pencil and lightly traced the outline.

This comes in the Spellbinders card kits as full sheets and card bases, I like to use the card base as panels because the card stock is not very thick, I can always use my heavy weight card stock as a base.

 I cut both sized flowers from the November 2018 card kit.

I used two shades of pink and also a coral ish pink.

I only went with the bigger flowers, but I will save the smaller ones for a different project.

 I squirted a dab of Tombow Mono Liquid Glue onto a block and folded up the flower and got a dab on the back.

 I added the flowers in a pattern all around the heart on the pencil line.

 I used some Viva Pearl Pen in the color cream to the centers of each flower.

 Since this will be hand delieverd I used some thicker foam scraps.

I cut a main panel at 4 1/4 by 5 1/2 out of the darker coral ish pink textured card stock.

 Using the good old fashion Stamp-a-ma-jig to stamp in Versa Fine Black Onyx ink.

I used a Stampabilities wooden stamp as well.

Finished Card.
