Love You Always Fancy Heart Card

Love You Always Fancy Heart Card

This Love You Always Fancy Heart Card can certainly be for Valentine’s Day tomorrow or it can be for other occasions! I left off a greeting just to show that you can use this card design in multiple ways.

The card base is Blushing Bride because it coordinates with the beautiful designer paper I used on the card. The Love You Always Specialty Designer Series Paper is so pretty on this card. It’s always a little hard to photograph paper that has foil accents as this one does. You always get a little glare! But I think you can see the shine a little bit of the foil.

Can you tell that I used three strips of paper on this card front? I cut two strips from the light Blushing Bride pink paper and then a strip of the Rococo Rose darker pink paper. You can cut the sizes however you like. I have a very narrow margin around the edge of the card. You can cut the strips larger than you want them and then trim down to see what will fit on the card base. These strips were glued right down onto the card base.

The die-cut scalloped heart I just love and is in the Many Hearts Dies. I cut it out of Rococo Rose Cardstock. In the center is a plain die-cut Basic White heart overlaid with the floral heart die in the same set cut out of Blushing Bride. The Basic White behind the floral heart makes it show up against the Rococo Rose heart. I like the way it turned out.

For an embellishment, I tied a bow with the very pretty Blushing Bride 3/8″ Metallic Ribbon and adhered it to the top of the heart with a few Mini Glue Dots. The ribbon has one satin side and one metallic side so you get a little bit of both when you tie a bow!

You can add a greeting to this card, but I thought it looked pretty enough without one. It would make a special Valentine, or a gorgeous engagement, wedding or anniversary card. I always say hearts are for any time so you can get a lot of use out of heart stamps or dies!

If you don’t have contrasting designer paper to use on a card design like this, you can stamp different designs on strips of paper and use it the same way! Maybe this Love You Always Fancy Heart Card will give you an idea of a card to make for Valentine’s Day or some other occasion.

Lots of Heart Happy Valentine’s Day Card

Lots of Heart Happy Valentine's Day Card

It’s time to make some Valentines and this Lots of Heart Happy Valentine’s Day Card is an easy, traditional one to make! I like Valentines made with other colors, but what says Happy Valentine’s Day better than Real Red?!

The card base is Real Red. I think Stampin’ Up!’s best color is Real Red. There are other “reds” out there in the world but when you compare to Real Red, which is a full, true, “real” red color, you can’t beat Stampin’ Up!

For the Basic White layer, (formerly Whisper White) before I even knew exactly what card I was going to make, I just stamped randomly with the little flowers in the Lots of Heart Stamp Set in Real Red Ink. Certainly don’t put this stamp set away after Valentine’s Day because it’s not just for Valentines! I’m already thinking what a pretty spring card I could make with this little flower stamp!

Coordinating with the Lots of Heart Stamp Set are the Many Hearts Dies. You can purchase both these items in the Lots of Heart Bundle. I just love this scalloped heart die-cut! I cut that out of Real Red and layered with a plain white die-cut heart. I thought about different ideas, but in the end, I just wanted to stamp “Happy Valentine’s Day” on the heart. I found that greeting in my Meant To Be Stamp Set in the Annual Catalog on page 69. You may already have this stamp set! (There are dies to go with this stamp set, too, which you may already have!)

The scalloped heart is popped up with Stampin’ Dimensionals®. For a little bit of bling, I decided to see if the Resin Hearts Embellishments would work. They are very small and I thought that was perfect for this card! Just a little something without being too much around the greeting. I doubt they would show up very well on the background.

So there you have a basic, traditional, easy-to-make Valentine card! We better get busy if we want to have Valentines to mail soon! Have fun making something like this Lots of Heart Happy Valentine’s Day Card.

Trio of Hearts Valentine Card

You get lots of hearts in the stamp set and dies I used to make this easy slim card, Trio of Hearts Valentine Card, for Valentine’s Day or really any time! These hearts are pretty big but they still fit perfectly on this slimline card.

I just got the Lots of Heart Bundle, which has the Lots of Heart Stamp Set and the Many Hearts Dies. And there really are many heart dies in that set! In fact, I recommend making a copy of the sheet with all the dies still adhered with your printer and keep it with your dies so you can see clearly what you are supposed to have! There are 15 different dies in the set!

To make this card, I decided to make pastel-colored hearts so I started with a card base of Pool Party Cardstock. I cut the paper 6″ x 6″ so that when I folded it in half, it would be 3″ x 6″ for a slimline card. The Whisper White layer is just a tiny bit narrower than the card base, 2 7/8″ x 5 7/8″.

I stamped the hearts on another piece of Whisper White and then die cut with one of the heart dies. This heart die also cuts a narrow outline of the heart, which I didn’t notice at first so the excess paper was getting left in the die. If you have this set, make sure you check the underside of your heart die because if you cut several times, that paper still stuck in the die will prevent getting a complete cut after awhile!

The hearts are stamped in Blushing Bride, Mint Macaron, and Pool Party ink. Since the photopolymer stamps are new, even though I wiped them on my Shammy a couple of times, the ink still beaded up a tiny bit when I stamped, but I don’t think it’s anything that’s bad enough to jump out. I adhered the hearts flat on the white card layer, but I could have popped them up on Stampin’ Dimensionals. Either way is fine. I did stamp the greeting in Pool Party Ink and then popped that up on Dimensionals. The greeting is in the Lots of Heart Stamp Set.

I almost left it as is at that point, but I decided to add some Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels. Who can resist a few rhinestones?! And for a final touch, I just used a piece of white twine I had to make a little bow on the center heart, adhered with a rolled-up Mini Glue Dot.

This is one example of how you can make an easy Valentine using three hearts in the Lots of Heart Stamp Set in the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog on page 15.
