Happy Valentines Day and Twofer Challenge

Happy Valentines Day!! I hope you are all enjoying this Hallmark holiday.

I was presented with the nicest Valentine from Charlotte with some candy and my husband brought me home some beautiful flowers. I know that many do not celebrate this day but we always do. Just kind of fun. Charlotte-who is a senior in HS-celebrated it by giving her friends Valentines. The kids at work were running around with pink and red gift bags.

Today I am posting my Valentine's that I created for the Twofer Challenge #2, which is hearts.


I used the Simon Says Stamp "Stacked Hearts" die for the repeated product, with some Doodlebug "So Punny" die cuts for my cards.


I started by using Brusho "Rose Red" on watercolor paper. When it dried, I die cut it using the "Stacked Hearts" die.


I layered the hearts over some Kraft polka dot paper that I had die cut. I then adhered the Kraft over a red A2 card base. Then I popped some of the hearts inside the die cuts.


I then adhered the olives and the sentiment die cuts over the front. I used a bit of glossy accents to the pimento part of the olive and some google eyes.

For my second card, I used the stacked hearts but used white paper.


I actually cut the die cut apart and placed it on my card. I then added back some of the white hearts and also some of the hearts from the red die cut.


I added the die cuts to the card front and added some google eyes.


My last touch was to cover the red hearts in clear sparkle pen and glossy accents.

I am entering these into the Twofer challenge,  AAA cards CAS #108 "All You Need is Love" challenge, and Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Add a Die Cut.

 

I thank you for stopping by!!! Have a wonderful night!!
