The way time flies it seems, I decided I should get with Valentine Cards. It will be here before we know it. And I am enjoying the two heart stamp sets in the new Mini Catalog that just debuted. The matching heart punch pack with scalloped and straight cut hearts are fabulous. Here is a look at a quick and easy Valentine card.
The colors in the gorgeous DSP are Flirty Flamingo and Real Red. I went with the Flirty Flamingo as a backdrop and focal point on the heart. I also used the new Heart Doilies behind the Flamingo heart. The doilies are adorable and come in both colors also. They will fit perfectly in the heart shaped tins in the suite of products. I will share a project with those soon.
I stamped the sentiment inside the heart and then punched it from the DSP using the scalloped heart punch. I layered it onto the doily heart and raised them with a Stampin’ Dimensional. The strip of card stock was just in place of a ribbon as something to ground the heart. This is a quick and easy trick when you may not have a matching ribbon or just want to use a scrap of DSP or card stock.
Thank you for visiting today. I hope you will stop back tomorrow for another new project. All of the supplies are listed at the bottom of the page.
ONE NEW PROMOTION: A sneak Peek of some new products that are debuting in February. They are dies that match some of the Sale-A-Bration and Mini Catalog stamps. Here are the flyers:
HOST CODE
My January Host Code is X3U7BR2N. Please use this code for orders under $150.00. I will have a small perk for those with orders over $50.00.
The list below is the CARRYOVER List. Items from the Holiday Catalog that will carry over to the 2020 Holiday Catalog. They will not be orderable between the two catalogs however.
I am sharing a mix of products today for a fond farewell to one of the cutest stamp sets. It is the Birds of a Feather stamp set. I think these birds are adorable and have used them for several occasions cards as well as some RAK cards during thanksgiving.
I paired this adorable rooster with a few new products for a sweet little valentine card. The Designer Series Paper is the new From My Heart DSP. The punched out heart is from the same DSP pack and is punched using the ruffled Heart from the Hearth Punch Pack. The Ruffled Heart fits the heart in the paper perfectly, and the plain heart matches a plain heart as well. I then used a stamp from the Birds of A Feather stamp set to place in the center of the heart.
The rooster is cut out using another new product. It is the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I LOVE these unusual shapes. The dies also have several rectangular shapes as well. I grounded the chicken and heart with the Real Red Ruched Ribbon. I also added a Real Red Glitter dot from the Toile Tidings Enamel Dots for the “O” in the Love.
I have paired products that are retiring from the Holiday Catalog with products that are debuting in the Mini Catalog 2020 soon. I love sharing how well all of the SU products pair together.
The retiring products are the Birds of A Feather Stamp set, the Real Red Ruched Ribbon, and the Toil Tiding Enamel Dots. So if you like these items please click on them in the supply list and get them ordered. My new supply list allows you to click on an item and it will add it to your cart automatically.

Meant to Be Bundle, 150587
I used my favorite Valentine Bundle. Although it would work wonderfully for anything that requires hearts. I love the various dies and the ways they can be used. I chose the All My Love Designer Series Paper to pair with the gorgeous hearts. This pattern is my very favorite of the cute paper in that pack. I love pairing it with the Balmy Blue. A nice twist for a romantic look.
Thank you so much for stopping by today. I hope you will return tomorrow after enjoying this sweet day. As always, the complete supply list is at the bottom of the post.

This is a really cute Valentine card, and I love it. However , I keep invisioning it as a Baby Card. I am going to have to work on that idea. My Valentine version is a Clean card for me. Not really a lot of stamped area or layers. Here it is:
Hey Love, 148644
I really love using the little Bocca dots from the Beauty Abounds stamp set. (I hope that is the correct term!). And I think the little Otter is just adorable. I stamped the dots, which look like bubbles to me, in Coastal Cabana Ink. The Otter is stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored with Stampin’ Blends.
The gorgeous ribbon is the Reversible ribbon of Coastal Cabana and Granny Apple Green. I think the shine is just perfect.
Thank you for visiting today. I hope you have a great weekend and will stop back in on Monday for another new project. All of the supplies are listed at the bottom of the post.

I know you have seen variations of this gift card holder. It is my “GO TO” for gift cards. It is also a fold that I do even when not including the gift card pocket. Hopefully you will like the different little twist I have added today.
Meant To Be Bundle, 150587
I have been doing really bright cards lately, so today is no exception! But I do love this Garden Impressions DSP. Truthfully, it can go either Subtle or Bright with the colors. That is awesome!
Have you figured out the little twist I mentioned about the card? Yes, it is the little card attached to the front. You are such good guessers!! Here it is pulled out.
And here is the inside. Just in case you have never seen it before.
I have directions listed below. This may actually be my first video. I am terrified, but I will get through it. But in the meantime, you will have the directions. If you have any problems with it, please contact me.
NOTE: I used the 1/8″ Handheld Circle Punch to punch the hole the ribbon is run through on the tag. That is going to be no longer available once supplies are depleted. Apparently the manufacturer says they can no longer make it. That is a bummer! So if you do not have it I would suggest grabbing it up before it is gone.
Thank you for visiting today! The Join Promotion is still live and SAB is not even halfway over. So Happy Stamping!!
Directions:
The basic card:
Base layer is 4 1/4 X 10, scored at 5 1/2 and 8 1/4, fold and burnish
On the short section, use a circle punch and punch a half circle for a finger slot
Fold the short section into the inside of the card
Place Tear & Tape along the very edges of the short section. Place the gift card or a piece of card stock into the slot as you adhere it down to insure enough room for the card.
The top layer:
Card stock layer is 3 3/4 X 5
DSP is 3 X 5
Also, inside white piece is 3 X 5 (so that it does not show from the outside)
Front Pull Out Pocket:
Card stock is 2 3/4 X 5 1/8
score down short side and 1/2, and 2 1/4
score long side at 2 3/8
Fold and burnish score lines
Cut away the outside 1/2 scores on both sides of the longer section
Use the Trio Corner Punch and round the corner of the longer section
Use the 1/2″ circle punch to punch a finger hole in the short end
Add adhesive to the fronts of the flaps on the short section so that when you fold them in they adhere to the back longer section.
The tag is the Everyday Label Punch with the hole punched with the 1/8″ handheld punch and add ribbon of your choice.

It is so hard to make masculine birthday cards most of the time. And it is even harder to make masculine Valentine Cards. Most valentine cards are sort of “mushy” or at least that is guy speak for I don’t want any part of it!! LOL!!! Well, today I have a non-mushy valentine card. I hope you will think that it fits that description.
Geared Up Garage Bundle, 150610
Some guys may be thinking that the car jump starts their heart! I know there are some who really loves classic cars. Hopefully this will work for your guys as well.
This is also a very quick card, which makes it one of my favorite kind. All it took was some cutting, two stamps, and one crank of the Big Shot. Woohoo!!
The touch of red is a bid towards the female classic of black and white with a pop of color. I thought of that when I saw the black DSP from Classic Garage Designer Series Paper. The red is actually the reverse side. How convenient is that?
The sentiment is stamped and then die cut. The two pieces are created from one die. It embosses the little ends and cuts out the center all at once. I think it would be great to heat emboss the sentiment on a different color and then pop it into the center. But I wanted to keep things simple on this card.
Thank you so much for visiting today. I hope you enjoyed yesterday’s blog hop and today’s card. I will have another project for you tomorrow, so please come back. And as always, all of the supplies are listed at the bottom of the post.
MEASUREMENTS:
Base card of Basic Black = 4 1/4 X 11
Whisper White = 4 1/8 X 5 3/8
DSP = 4 X 5 1/4
Red DSP strip = 1 1/4 X 5 1/4
