Love You Tons

This is a fairly big card measuring in at 5.25" x 5.25" because I had to fit that cutie elephant in there. The elephant template came from Papertrey Ink. I cut him out and then ran him through my Big Shot with an embossing folder. The banner at the bottom I cut by hand and then used my white pen to draw in some dashes around the edge.



I used a button for the eye and threaded a bit of embroidery floss through it and fluffed it out so it looks like eyelashes. Lastly, I stitched the card top to a white cardstock base.

Supplies:
Stamps: Say It With Style (PTI)
Cardstock: PTI
Patterned Paper: American Crafts
Other: elephant template (PTI), heart punch (SU!), button, embroidery floss, embossing folder (Provo Craft)

V Day card #13

I thought I'd also show you what's on the inside of each of these cards. In every single one I stamped "i love" from the Wonderful Words: Additions stamp set and then just hand wrote what it is that I loved about him. In this one, I was being silly and referencing the popular Selena Gomez song.

V Day card #9

I have a few more of these mini cards I made for DH - one for each of the first 14 days of February. :)



Since I (still!) don't have banner dies, I used my scallop edge punch and then just cut up between each scallop to create these little round-end banner flags.

Supplies:
Cardstock: white (PTI)
PP: text paper (7 Gypsies, I think)
Stamps: alphabet (long since defunct PSX)
Other: red/white Baker's twine (PTI), heart punch (SU!)

V Day card #8

I think this one is my favorite of all of them. It was a close run between this one and the previous post but this one won by a hair. I think because of its simplicity.

If you click on the photo to make it larger you'll see that the hearts are punched through the top layer and then backed by the red patterned paper. Then the top layer is set on top of the card base with pop dots. Fun 3-D effect.

Cardstock: white (PTI)
