Red, Pink and White with a Little Washi Tape

I was so excitied to receive my new My Creative Time Stamps I had to make something.  Emma's new release stamps are Valentine related so I made a Valentine card.

 
I used red card stock for my A2 size card.  I stamped the pink background paper with the Love Collage stamp with red ink.  I also used the polaroid die from Simply Live.  Using Stickles I glittered the frame then I tied the red gingham ribbon from Offray around it.  The banner was stamped with the Forever stamp.  The heart is stamped with red ink and cut out.  I glued the trim around it and placed it into the frame with pop dots.  The little resin roses are Spare Parts from Paper Studio.  I have a white doilie under the frame. 

The washi tape is handmade.  I watched a tutorial on You Tube by Scrappinology.  Gina had several great ideas on her channel for making your own embellishements.  You should check her out. 

I am entering this card in the following challenges:
Simon Says Stamps-Washi tape
The Pink Elephant Challenge- red, pink and white color challenege

Hope your having a great day.  Finally some sunshine here. 
Bye Bye for Now

COWBOY VALENTINE

OK Another post for today.  I made a cute Valentine for a little boy.  I used my Paper Doll cartrige to cut the boy at 3 ".  The card is A2 size.  The papers I used  for his clothes are scraps from my stash.  The denim background is Jolee's boutique stickers.  The hearts are cut at various sizes from the Doodle Charms cartridge.

I used my Simply Live stamps from MCT for the words.  I was thinking of those little candy hearts that have sayings on them when I stamped them.  I used a red glitter pen to outline the scallop edges. Of course I used Peach Keen Everyday Faces for his smiling face.  I used my white gel pen for his eyes and rouge Colorbox chalk for his rosy cheeks.

The denim twine I used for his "lasso" is from the Twinery.  I wanted it to look like he had lasssoed the large heart. So here he is.


I am entering this card in the following challenges.

Well that's it for today, Bye Bye for Now

I LOVE RIBBON

I love to use ribbon on my projects.  Sometimes it's just a little bow and sometimes it's wide and shiny, like on this Valentines Day card.  I have so much ribbon I am running out of storage.  I have a rainbow of colors.
On top of the spools I have yards of crinkle ribbon I learned to make.

Here's the card I made using wide ivory satin ribbon. The base of the card in A2 size.  I used Coordinations Chocolate Lovers collection from Joann's for the layers. The patterned paper is Prima "Printery" 6x6 pad.  The flowers are also by Prima to go with this paper.  The brad is Paper Studio Spare Parts.



The giraffe collage sheet  "Between the Lines" is from Gecko Galz. I inked the giraffe's using Tim Holtz Vintage Photo distress maker.   I also inked the edges of everything using Vintage Photo. The hearts are glittered red using a glitter pen.  I  wrote the sentiment because I discovered I have no stamps for Valentines.  Guess I need to buy some.

I love the way the giraffe's necks form a heart.  I also like the background text.  I am entering this card in the  Challenge over at Come and Get It Challenge blog.  The challenge is Tie a Ribbon Around It.

Hope you like it.  Bye Bye for Now, Kim
