Happy Valentine's Day

 Okay, so it isn't a card.
But this was so much fun to make.
The glitter paper is so fun and sparkly! This is her bag to collect her valentines. We also made little gift bags for her classmates.

This card didn't really turn out to be my "style" but my 8 year old daughter LOVES it. She loves sparkly, shiny. In any case, there you have it. I felt the need to use up as much Valentine related items as I could find. LOL! <3

Tuesday Tip . . . .

Even though I will be showing a lot of Valentine cards in the coming weeks, remember you can take inspiration from any card and change it to suit your needs. If you like a card, ask yourself what you like about it? Is it the colors, the layout, the details? Once you figure out what you are responding to, you can create any card you will love.
In the card above I really like the sewing detail, the red and vanilla contrast, and the definition stamp. You will most likely see this sort of card base again, only the circle will be different.
