All these cards reflect my vision of love (different kinds of love for different kinds of people) but I had to chose only one to enter in the Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge. I'm not sure if entering more than one is allowed, but if so, I don't know how that would work. I'm still figuring this challenge stuff out.
For my stampin' partner (mom):
Stamps: Valentine Defined
Ink: Real Red, Pretty in Pink
Paper: Real Red, Naturals Ivory cardstock, and Sending Love dsp (retired)
Tools: XL scallop punch, Sizzlits Hearts Set die, distresser tool
Extras: Pearl
For "the man", who is not into anything flowery:
(I'm so pleased with this one, cause it's so him: minimalist, gets the message across in a clear manner, no big fuss about it, and movin' on. )
Stamps: Valentine Defined
Ink: Chocolate Chip, Real Red
Paper: Crumb Cake, Whisper White
Tools: Heart punch
Extras: Crumb Cake seam binding
For my lovely sister:
Stamps: Valentine Defined, Teeny Tiny Verses, Simply Said (retired)
Ink: Pretty in Pink
Paper: Naturals Ivory, Very Vanilla, Sending Love dsp (retired)
Tools: heart punch, Sizzlets Heart Set die, decorative label punch, eyelet border punch
Extras: pearls, linen thread, Very Vanilla button
I return to this particular stamp again and again, it's timeless!
Only the top portion of the eyelet punch peeks out, and I "resized" the decorative label punch for my greeting.
I'm thrilled to say that my sister's valentine was chosen as one of Hand Stamped Sentiments' picks of the week!
Hope you're feeling the love of those around you today!
Happy Valentine's Day!
