Paper:  Real Red Card Stock (124290 – 12″ x 12″), More Amore Designer Series Paper (129309)

INSTRUCTIONS FOR MAKING THE STAMPIN UP YOU ARE LOVED CARD BASE:

  • Cut a 6-1/4″ x 12″ piece of Real Red Card Stock and score it along the 12″ side at the 3-5/8″ and 7-1/4″ marks.

  • Align the card stock vertically with the 6-1/4″ side at the top.  Using the Big Shot, its multipurpose platform, and one cutting plate, place the card stock onto the cutting plate, and place the largest heart framelit onto the card stock slightly above the 7-1/4″ score line.

  • Place the second cutting plate onto the framelit and card stock, but place it about 1/16″ below the 7-1/4″ score line.  This creates your Big Shot sandwich.

  • Slowly push the sandwich into the Big Shot to the point that the cutting plates will catch under the roller.  Being careful to not move the cutting plates, roll the sandwich into and through the big shot with the point of the heart framelit entering first.
  • Remove the heart framelit from the card stock and the card stock will look like the picture below.

  • Turn the card stock heart underneath and cut along the 7-1/4″ fold line on the left and right sides and in the center.  Make sure you leave the heart connected to the rest of the card stock.

  • The front of the card base will look like this after cutting off the pieces.

  • Crease the card stock at the 3-5/8″ score line.
  • Set the card stock up and it will look like this:

  • Decorate your card as desired!

Stampin Up Hearts Collection Framelits Valentine Card

Haven’t you loved using the Stampin Up Hearts Collection Framelits? I have thoroughly enjoyed them and am happy to have them as one of my many tools. Have you enjoyed making your Valentine Cards this season? What is your favorite one that you created? What is your favorite one of mine? I’ve enjoyed making my cards and I believe today’s share is my favorite. It is my last Valentine Card share for this season. I hope you enjoy it!

 Hearts Collection Framelits
The shimmery shininess of the beautiful Red Glimmer Paper graces the card as its first layer. The card’s outer edge supports the lovely Stampin’ Up! Pretty in Pink 1/4″ Grosgrain Ribbon that I folded and glued into a ruffle pattern. The Whisper White card stock glistens with the Blushing Bride Smooch Spritz, and the elegant Basic Pearls adds a touch of class to the card.

This following picture is a closeup that provides you with a better view of the layers I created with the Framelits.

 Hearts Collection Framelits
The card’s inside is enhanced with a Whisper White scalloped heart made with the largest of the Heart Framelits.

Zentangle Valentine – Stampin’ Up! Hearts Collection Framelits

Today I have for you a Zentangle Valentine that features the Stampin Up Hearts Collection Framelits
 
What are your favorite colors for Valentine cards?  I don’t have a favorite. Therefore, I am not adverse to using non-traditional colors, as I did for this Zentangle Valentine card.  As you can see, my non-traditional colors are pink and green. I added some zentangle/doodling on the primary piece of the card (e.g., the leaves, circles, etc.).

Key To My Heart Valentine Box Video Tutorial – Hearts Collection Framelits

I have a beautiful item for you today; it is my Key To My Heart Valentine Box. Isn’t it stunning? I recorded a video to instruct you on how to make the Valentine box. It’s my very first video, and being a beginner at developing videos, it’s a little rough, and it took about two weeks to develop. :-(( Regardless, I got it completed and I hope you enjoy it.

Key To My Heart Valentine Box

Some of the key Stampin’ Up! Products I used are the Hearts Collection Framelits, Red and Silver Glimmer Paper, Key and Heart Trinkets, Whisper White and Real Red Cardstock, Basic Gray Satin Ribbon, and the Scalloped Heart of Hearts Embosslits Die.

Regardless of the products I used, the purpose of this post is to provide instructions on making the Key To My Heart Valentine box itself.

Key To My Heart Valentine Box

Did you notice the Love Impressions Designer Series Paper from last year around the box sides? I used My Digital Studio (MDS) and the Love Impressions digital download to print the paper! MDS is a must-have product!

Key To My Heart Valentine Box

I placed inside the box a heart made with White Waffle Paper and a Heart Framelit.

Enjoy the Key To My Heart Valentine Box video, and feedback is welcome!

God’s Blessings!
