    I think love is in the air! Everyone loves getting a Valentine from a secret admirer so let’s send some to those special friends this year. You can make this share in no time at all.

    I started by choosing my card stock and cutting it to size. Next, stamp the sentiment from the Kat Scrappiness “Say it with Hearts” Stamp and Die Set. I do love my layers!

    Now to pick the conversation Hearts to use from the stamp set. I stamped three hearts onto coordinating patterned paper.

    My finally step was to assemble the pieces and the card is complete.

    Happy Valentine’s Day using the Heart Panel Die

    Happy Friday Crafters!  Hope everyone had a great week.  Today, I have a fun shaker valentine card to share with you today.

     

    I started my card by adhering a piece of patterned paper to a piece of pink card stock and adhered this panel to a cream colored card base.  I then die cut the new Heart panel die from cream card stock and adhered a sheet of Kat Scrappiness’s acetate sheet to the back.

    For my shaker bits, I used three different Kat Scrappiness sequin mixes – Hearts O’Plenty, 50 Shades of Red, and Cupid’s Arrow.  I added foam adhesive to the back of the heart panel and adhered it to the card over the sequins.

    My Happy Valentine’s Day sentiment is a sticker that I backed with cream card stock.  To finish the card, I cut two of the small envelopes from the patterned paper and adhered them to the top left portion of the heart panel.

    Lovely Layered Floral Heart

    February 5, 2020

    Good morning! It’s Lisa up on the blog today and with Valentine’s Day right around the corner I’ve been busy creating my favorite types of cards.  I love all things heart related so this holiday is one of my favorites. I’ve always been drawn to the more feminine and frilly style of cardmaking. My card today was inspired by a card I saw Laura Bassen make while I was scrolling through Instagram. I am in love with the Floral Heart Die from Kat Scrappiness and for today’s card I die cut about 6 of them out of heavy white card stock and layered them on top of each other with Nuvo Liquid Adhesive. I just love that added dimension it gives to the focal point.

    I just love that look you get when you layer dies on each other.

    It gives so much dimension to your card.

    For the background of the card I cut out a panel of Bristol Smooth card stock with the largest Stitched Scalloped Rectangle Die and did some ink blending with these 3 Distress Oxide Inks:

    Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide Ink

    Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide Ink

    Wilted Violet Distress Oxide Ink

    I added some paint splatters over the panel with the same colors

    plus some white paint for added interest.

    I used the I Love You Shadow Dies for the simple sentiment on top of the heart. I cut the word “Love” out using silver foil card stock and I used vellum for the shadow die backing. I love using vellum on my projects because I think it adds a very elegant look to my projects. For some extra shine and fun I added Silver Jewels all around the heart to match the silver foil card stock.

    To finish off my card I tied a bow using some Lawn Fawn Silver Sparkle cord with a glue dot.

     Here is one more look at my card with all of the dies I used on the card.  I really love how this card turned out. The ink blended background just makes me happy. I love how all the colors blend into each other to make new colors.

    Thank you so much for stopping by today, I love sharing my cards on my blog and I hope you’ll come back often to see more of my cards! I also post my cards on my FB page and my Instagram account.

    Heart Panel Valentine Card

    Hello crafty friends,

    This Kat Scrappiness Heart Panel Die is a great way to make fast and easy Valentine cards.

    The trick to making several cards the same way look different is the paper choices and paper layering. I used a stripe paper to back the cute heart die panel.

    I also used the Kat Scrappiness Die Set called I Love You for my sentiment. I only cut the love word out of black and dark pink glitter stacking them to create a thicker word die.

    Finally, I assembled the pieces and added some Kat Scrappiness Magenta Hearts sprinkles.

    By changing the paper patterns and colors you can make this card again and it will look totally different.

    Supplies:

    Kat Scrappiness Heart Panel Die

    Kat Scrappiness I Love You Die

    Kat Scrappiness Magenta Hearts Sprinkles

    Dear Friend You Are Perfect Card

    January 29, 2020

    Hi Everyone, it’s Tina here. Kat Scrappiness has a new original die that uses letters to shape a heart. Some of those letters create a word that allows you to customize what you want to say. I chose to create a card for a friend instead of as a Valentine’s card. Below are the steps to create your own card.

    Step 1 – Trim White Cardstock to 8 1/2”  x 5 1/2”, score at 4 1/4” and fold in half for a vertical side fold card. (A2)

    Step 2 – Create a DIY background by applying ink in various shades of red. Stamp a Script Background using White Ink. Let dry.

    Step 3 – Diecut Valentine Word Search using the background created from Step 2. Carefully remove the diecut. I had no problems keeping all the pieces intact. Poke out only the letters to form a word. Leaving all the other pieces. Adhere to the front of the card using Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive.

    Step 4 – Apply ink in red to a scrap piece of White Cardstock. Stamp Say It With Hearts (Dear Friend) using Versamark. Sprinkle White Embossing Powder and remove the excess. Heat set it with a Heat Tool. Diecut Say It With Hearts. Add some more ink to the edges. Adhere to card using Foam Tape. (Optional – Adhere some thin yarn or thread beneath the heart for some added interest)

    Step 5 – Randonly adhere Red Heart Sprinkles using a Crystal Katana and Collage Medium.

    The Valentine Word Search die can be used for several occasions by simply selecting the words of your choice, changing your background and colours. Below is a link to all the products used. Thank you for stopping by and have a wonderful day!
