Stampin Up Valentine Cards 2013

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and we’re all thinking about making beautiful  Stampin Up Valentine Cards, such as my card share for today.

Stampin Up Valentine Cards 2013

Do you have retired Stampin Up products that you find yourself still using?  Aren’t there some items you just cannot give up?  Well, I experience this from time to time, as I did when making this Stampin Up Valentine Card.

This valentine card is simple to make but can take a little time because I used a lot of the retired Iridescent Ice Embossing Powder (don’t know why the item was retired!), which takes some time.  You can see better in the below picture all the elements on which I used the embossing powder.

Stampin Up Valentine Cards 2013

The embossing powder was used on the Whisper White Card Stock piece to the left on which I used the Adorning Accents Edgelits (125595).  It was also used on the blending ink art piece (click HERE for instructions on the technique), the laser-cut heart on the bottom of the multiple layers of hearts, and the second heart from the top.  The laser-cut heart, which is Primrose Petals in color, is in the new Stampin Up More Amore Specialty DSP (129309).

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.

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

The card’s first layer of polka dot paper is from the In Color 2011-2013 Patterns Stack DSP. It’s a perfect background for the polka dot design from the Sweet Shop DSP. I used the new Adorning Accents Edgelits on the top and bottom of the first layer.

Did you notice the Lucky Limeade twine around the heart? It’s actually Stampin’ Up!’s White Baker’s Twine that I dipped in a combination of water and Lucky Limeade from a reinker.

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.).
