Valentine Share

I had to share the Valentines cards my Mom made for the kids.
She did such a great job!
This is Vincent's:
And Vanessa's:
Here is a close up of the card I made for my hubby.
And the two small 3x3 cards for the kids.

Did you recognize the stamp set and punch?
Remember the Holiday Mini had the ornament punch and Delightful Decorations stamp set?
You don't have to make just Christmas cards with it, you can make fish!!!!!
Lots of fun!!!

February's Stampin' Club & Valentines Cards

This month we made a Joy Fold card using the Sweet Pea Designer paper.
My new favorite Bird Punch, and some Old Olive Satin Ribbon, were also used.
For the flower and birds wing I did the faux suede technique (not sure if you can see it in the picture!).
The card open.
Next we did some kissing! (perfect for Valentines!)
We inked up the Medallion in Pumpkin Pie, then with the vines from Baroque Motifs inked in Rose Red we kissed them together! You then stamp the Medallion on to Whisper White cardstock! I love how it turned out!
And the last project is a treat pouch using the Curly Label Movers and Shapers Die.
A strip of Sweet Pea designer paper, Chocolate Chip Satin Ribbon, the Bird Punch, and medium cello bags to complete the pouch. Oh, and don't forget the candy!
Vincent and I worked together to make his class Valentines cards.

I got smart this year and decided to get a personal stamp made for Vincent.
(Poor kid only 5 years old and having to write his long name 20 times, not fun!!!)
We had fun being creative together!

Happy Valentines Day!
