Love Cards 2008

I can't believe I'm almost finished with my Valentine's Day cards. Will I actually mail them as I intend to??? We'll soon see...

Here is my love 2008 collection. I guess you can tell that I'm stuck on this color scheme now. I'm working on cleaning off my desk so I think I'm at the end, but I have a couple more cards to show you before I get sick of it.

"A Friend Loves" Cards
Finished Card size: 5.5"x 4.25"
Stamps: Background Hearts 1 and 2 (The Angel Company), Heart with Swirls (Studio G), Bible Verse(My Sentiments Exactly)
Ink: Basic Brown, Cranberry Crisp (SU)
Other: Scalloped Heart Punch and Ribbon (Martha Stewart Crafts),Heart Punch, Ticket Corner Punch, clear dimensional glue, glitter




"Love is Kind" Cards
Finished Card size:4.25" x 5.5"
Stamps: Heart with Swirls (Studio G), Love is Kind (Stampabilities)
Ink: Basic Brown, Cranberry Crisp (SU)
Other: Scalloped Heart Punch and Ribbon (Martha Stewart Crafts),Paper Edgers Corkscrew, clear dimensional glue, glitter

Here's another tip to lessen the waste and weight of your cards. I always have 1/4 in strips left over from cutting my background cardstock. Sometimes I use them instead of using a full piece of cardstock to create the look of a mat as I did on this last card.




We have a snow day here (nothing sticking). I have new stamps from SU and Cornish Heritage Farms, so I'm going to play. I just might be back with more cards today.
