Valentine Card #4



I had a bit of time today so I made another Valentine card! This card is 5.5 x 5.5" and made with paper from the very cute Doodlebug Sweetheart 6X6 paper pad. Doodlebug has such cute papers! I also used the C.C Designs Hogs and Kisses stamp, which I think is so adorable.

Die-namics Heart Die
Die-namics Heart Border Die
Die-namics Fishtale Stack Die
Beacon 3-in-1 Glue
Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Victorian Velvet
Crystal Stickles
Copic Markers


Paper for Copic Markers
Pink Pearls
C.C. Designs Hogs and Kisses Stamp Set
May Arts Textured Two Tone Ribbon

Heart Doily


I coloured the image with Copic Markers
Pig: R81, R 83, R85
Feet: W1, W3, W5
Arrow: RV19
Shadow: B0000


Since the card is 5.5 x 5.5" square, I cut the pink card stock 5.5 x 5.5". Next I cut the flowered paper at 5 1/4 x 5 1/4"to create a layered effect. I cut the other 2 patterns at 5 1/4" and then cut diagonally to make 2 triangles. I cut 2 strips with the heart border die out of the pink paper and a coordinating patterned paper.  I inked the edges of the doily and the sentiment with distress ink. Glue all the pieces together, attach the ribbon and then adhere all to the pre-made card front. I used foam squares to make the image stand out a bit adding dimension. Place your pearls in the top right corner of the card. On the inside I cut 2 sizes of hearts from the patterned paper as well as one heart and stamped a valentine sentiment. After gluing those on I stamped another image of the pig in the bottom right hand corner. Now sit back and look at your cute Valentine card that you just made!

Chat at you later,
