I water colored the primary element on this card – the stamped bird and flowers heart-shaped image that is from the gorgeous stamp set, Take it to Heart. I used one of the Stampin Up Hearts Framelits to cut out the stamped image. I used the same framelit to cut out the heart in the center of the card’s first layer, the Cherry Cobbler Cardstock, and then slipped the water-colored piece inside.

The banner that holds the sentiment is also from the Take it to Heart stamp set. The sentiment, “Be My Valentine”, is from the Sweet Cake stamp set, and the small heart stamp from the Take it to Heart stamp set was used to stamp Cherry Cobbler ink onto the card’s first layer. The card base was made with Island Indigo Cardstock. The hearts in the four corners of the card were cut out with the Heart to Heart Punch and embellished with the new hearts Adorning Accents Embossing Folder. I hope you enjoy today’s feature!

Stampin Up Valentine Card-Guneaux Designs

If I have to say it myself, I think this Stampin Up Valentine Card is beautiful. The center piece of the card features Stampin’ Up!’s new Framelits Dies, the Labels Collection from the Occasions Mini Catalog.  Are you enjoying your Stampin’ Up! 2012 Occasions Mini Catalog?  Isn’t it full of beautiful stamps, papers, dies, and embellishments? Today’s card features one of the Occasions Mini products and others from the upcoming Sale-A-Bration Catalog that debuts on January 24th.

Stampin Up Valentine Card
I used two sizes of the labels framelits dies to cut Silver Glimmer Paper*, Whisper White, and Basic Black frames. After cutting the Basic Black frame, I used paper snips to cut off about an 1/8″ around the frame. This gives the appearance that I used three separate framelits dies. The Silver Glimmer Paper* behind the Basic Black frame gives the centerpiece a nice pop.The centerpiece’s floral image (beneath the hearts) on the Whisper White frame is from the Fresh Vintage Stamp Set (125117-Clear) from the upcoming Sale-A-Bration Catalog. This stamp set is FREE when you purchase $50 of Stampin’ Up! products (taxes and shipping apply) during Sale-A-Bration. Atop the floral image are three hearts, one of which is made with the Silver Glimmer Paper*, and two made from stamp images in the I {Heart} Hearts stamp set. These images were stamped with Real Red Ink and embellished with Basic Rhinestones. Behind the centerpiece is a piece of Real Red Card Stock that is embellished with the Stripes Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.The sentiment “Be Mine” is from another Sale-A-Bration Stamp Set, the Outlines Occasions (126016), which is also FREE with a $50 purchase during Sale-A-Bration. I used the Scallop Trim Border Punch to create the embellishment on the left side of the card, and a ribbon strip and bow made with retired Stampin’ Up! ribbon on the right side. Enjoy!
*The Silver Glimmer Paper is a “carry over” from the 2011 Holiday Mini Catalog.

I hope you have enjoyed this Stampin Up Valentine Card!
