Happy Valentine's Day!

6a0120a615ca8d970b017d400c83df970c-800wi

 

We are hope that you all have some fun, sentimental or romantic activities planned for this day of love and appreciation.  Over the last two weeks our Biker Chicks and Cycling Team members have given you some ideas that we hope were inspiring, but today we just want to wish you a Happy Valentine's Day!


I-Love-You-Card
I Love You Card by Heather Leopard


I just adore the journaling tags and I wanted showcase this one on the card so I wrapped it in a small doily with twine and stick pins and added a pretty paper rosette. The base of the card is quite simple to re-create - just adhere two pieces of pattern paper together and add vellum tape to the seam where they meet. Add your sentiment and embellishments and your card is complete.

Love-Card
Love Card by Heather Leopard


I wanted to keep this card simple. To create it, I simply cut out three hearts, faux stitched around them and then using foam dots, I added different pattern papers behind them. Lastly, I adhered vellum tapes to the square card, added a strip of pattern paper and then overlayed the "LOVE" stickers.

Box-Front
Card Storage Box by Heather Leopard

 

I decided that this card needed something more so I used my CAMEO to cut this box. I filled the negative portion of the box with different pieces of pattern paper and then embellished the lid. The card is a perfect fit. You can't see it in the photo but I actually shredded some pattern paper, for the card and some candy to rest on. I'm really excited to give this to my someone special.

 Valentine Cards and Stacking Gift Boxes by Liz Qualman

 

This is a little ensemble of cards and gift boxes perfect for candy, chocolate or other sweet and romantic gifts.  I found some nesting boxes in my gift wrap stash and recovered them with the Just Because Collection.

820667_10151314128247462_768175710_oI really love the paper crafting kits that come with each LYB collection.  I added one of the Naturals cork heart pins to go along with the Just Because heart pin.

Cards by Corrie Jones

 

I love the Just Because line for Valentine's Day cards.  It has the traditional red and pink, but the colors really pop because of the dark blue and aqua.  It is an incredibly fun color combination and adds a little bit of playfulness to the "Love" theme.
