Valentines Day Cards

It is hard to believe that 2012 is over with and we have entered 2013. If time moves as quickly has it has been Valentine's Day will be here before you know it. Here are a few easy cards to get you started on creating yours. All of my cards have a white card stock base and are 4 1/4" X 5 1/2". My mat layers are 4" X 5 1/4" and 3 3/4" X 5. All of my paper is from K & Company and are from older paper pads. All of my little critters are from Create A Critter 2. I cut the Teddy Bear and Koala bear at 3 1/2" and the Love Bug is cut at 3".

 For my Teddy Bear I used some onyx pearls liquid pearls for his eyes and a white gel pen to add some faux stitching to my heart. I used white distress stain to stamp my little sentiment on my heart. He is attached to the card with an Action Wobble.

For my Koala I used my Imagine and the Baby Boutique color pallet for my grey colors. The black and red I cut with my Expression. Again I added some faux stitching to my heart and the ribbon. I embossed the sentiment with some Opaque White WOW! Embossing Powder.

For my Love Bug I added some Glam Pink stickles to the heart shaped antennas. My sentiment on this one is stamped in Memento Tuxedo black ink and is tamped on the larger heart that cut out from the bugs body.

This is the Hero Arts stamp set I used for all of my sentiments. I got it awhile back and have been anxious to use it.This item is not a standard stock item in the store but Kim at Cutter's Creek can order it for you so don't hesitate to ask her.
