Hello!
Today, I have a fun couple of Valentine cards to share with you. For these cards, I used the Sweet Talk Bundle from Concord & 9th's January release. I fell in love with this set when I saw the pretty fronds in the heart shape, and the dies that coordinated.
For the first card, I used the large heart image from the Sweet Talk Stamp Set, which I stamped in Versamark Ink onto Grapefruit Cardstock. I white heat embossed the image, before cutting it out with the large heart die in the Sweet Talk Die Set. Using the Pale Vermillion pencil from my Prismacolor Pencil Set, I colored in the open portions of the fronds. I also stamped and heat embossed a second heart onto Pale Rose Cardstock, and die cut it as well (I only used half of the heart in the end).
With the Sweet Talk Die Set, I cut four of the fronds out of Wheat Cardstock, and a set of the smaller hearts out of Sea Glass Cardstock. I layered the hearts and fronds together, and added foam tape to the back side.
On a piece of White Cardstock, cut to card front size (5.25" x 4"), I laid the hearts in place (with the foam tape backing still on) to see where to stamp the sentiment. I stamped the sentiment, from the Sweet Talk Stamp Set, with Sorbet Ink, using the MISTI. Then, I removed the backing from the foam tape, and adhered the large heart cluster in place. I added the smaller Sea Glass hearts with liquid glue, and then adhered a scattering of Fashion Gold Pieces. The card front was attached to a white card base, made from heavyweight white cardstock, using foam tape.
That's the cards for today. While I chose to go with a Valentine theme on my cards, the Sweet Talk Bundle would certainly work for anniversaries, weddings, and thinking of you type cards as well.
Thanks for stopping by!
