Valentines



I threw the heart border die into my cart on impulse during my last release order.  What a great idea that turned out to be.  I have been having such fun with it. 

The first two cards were inspired by this card Maile Belles showed during the count down.

Rainbow Hearts

Color Blocked Hearts

Be Mine
Hugs & Kisses



I whipped up this last card super quick, after seeing this card from my friend Kim at Cupcakes, Cards and Kim.  I loved how she used patterned paper and Button Boutique, and just had to try it myself with one of my new Valentine paper pads.  The paper is double sided, so I cut one piece, and used both sides for the card.  That is the only way I know that these two patterns match.
