Happy Valentine's Day

Hello friends.  I am popping in quickly to share a Valentine's Day card using some vintage (OLD!!) PTI stamps and dies.  I made a really big investment of time a couple of years ago to put all my stamps, dies and stencils in Evernote, and I have been keeping it updated every time I get new supplies (every day?).  This has made it so much easier to find and use supplies I have forgotten about.

This card uses PTI Tree Tops stamps and dies, Keep it Simple Valentine's Day stamps, and the Heart Cover Plate.  I die cute my card front with that cover plate, and then glued all the hearts back in.  I like the white on white texture, and it also gave me a good place for my sentiment.

I am entering this card at Ink to Paper Melissa's Fab Friday Feature to 'Create a Heart Card', CAS Colours & Sketches #402, Happy Little Stampers Anything Goes with Dies, and WWC304: All About Occasions.

Thanks for Visiting

Clean and Simple Plainly White

Officially, it is Day 9 of the Clean & Simple Card Making class, but in my house, it is Day 7: Plainly White cards.  This was a fun one for me.  I have more ideas than time.  Here are three cards that I was able to make this morning.

happy birthday

I had some fun with this card, using my scoreboard to create that diagonal panel on the bottom.  Turns out it was quite helpful in guiding the placement of my little birds.  I am also going to post this for this week's One-Layer Wednesday OLW75 challenge for a masculine birthday card--I think this would be sweet for a little boy, and I was very careful NOT to use any pink at all.

the sky is the limit

It doesn't get much simpler than this.  I cased one of the sample cards from the class--masked, stamped, colored with Prismacolor pencils--done.  I think this will go to one of my nieces who is in the process of selecting a college for next year.

XOXO

 This final card will be part of a collection of valentine cards I will be sending in support of Winter Sim's valentines card drive to support Children's Hospital.  Click here to find out more--there's still time to get some valentines card to support the cause.
