Happy Wishes for Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day!  To me that means Spring is coming.  About this time of year I keep watch for the tiny green shoots that mean the crocus are going to bloom!  But, I'm getting a bit ahead of myself.  Today I'm sharing a Valentine's card with a gorgeous Sale-a-bration set, Happy Wishes, that you can only get for free with purchase*.

The main "happy" image is inked up with two colors for an ombre effect.  I used Berry Burst on the flowers and a little into the letters, Fresh Fig was used at the top, making sure to overlap the Berry Burst a bit so there was full ink coverage.  It was stamped onto Whisper White card stock.  I used the largest heart die from Sweet and Sassy Framelits to cut the heart.

Since there are no Valentine's Day greetings in the Happy Wishes I pulled out a favorite standby for greetings, Teeny Tiny Wishes. I simply omitted the "happy" part of the greeting which is stamped with Fresh Fig ink and cut using the small label in Bunch of Banners Framelits.  There are so many little greetings in Teeny Tiny Wishes that you could use. The little greeting is popped up using  Mini Stampin' Dimensionals. The larger heart is popped up using the regular sized Stampin' Dimensionals.

For layering I used Powder Pink Card Stock embossed with the Sweetheart Embossing Folder. That is layered onto a Fresh Fig Card Stock panel. The base layer is Whisper White Thick.  I added a few Basic Pearl Jewels.

Valentine Canvas

Valentine's Day is just around the corner.  I needed just a little accessory to put on my stack of books to finish off my decor.  I remembered the little canvas squares I bought earlier in the year and in no time at all I had this piece finished.

I cut the heart and the word love from the Sunshine Wishes Thinlits set using red glimmer paper.  It needed something and I had this flower that I made (using the retired Spiral Flower Die) some time ago from a thrifted red cashmere sweater.  I added it and voila – done!  

It was just the right touch to put on my stack of books

Heads up – there will be 3 new Sale-a-brations items available on February 21.  Demonstrators get to preorder them so I expect to have them in my hands soon.  Watch for more info as the release date approaches.

Thanks for looking
