HAPPY VALENTINE's DAY!!

Here are a few cards that I made using the Sale-A-Bration sets. I hope you are all having a wonderfully delightful Valentine's Day. We are spending a quiet night at home with our little girl. She is STILL sick, so it is a cuddle evening! We LOVE to cuddle with her (especially because it is Valentine's, hee, hee) but wish she were feeling better!

The first two cards both feature the Merci Stamp set. I coloured the image on the left using a Q-Tip in Stampin' Pastels and the image on the right was coloured using Stampin' Write Markers. Both cards use the Happy Valentine's Day statement from the Holidays & Wishes stamp set(page 143). I also used the Canvas background stamp and a few silver brads on the card on the right.


The last card uses both the Lots of Thoughts and Friendship Blooms stamp sets from Sale-A-Bration. I used the VersaMark Resist technique and some brayer detail to the background glossy cardstock. Note how the piece of vellum just adds an element to this card and you don't see any adhesive. I simply adhered the Note of Love piece of cardstock to the vellum using SNAIL adhesive and then applied the SNAIL once again to the vellum side but only where the Whisper White cardstock would hide it! I also just rubbed the edges of the vellum directly against the ink pad to help highlight it.



Happy Valentine's!!!
