Hello! I’m excited to be participating in the Made With Heart Valentine Blog Hop this weekend! Sixteen crafters from several different countries are sharing projects to get you in the mood to spread some love.
To me, it always seems that the most difficult person to make a valentine card for is my husband. He’s not into the long mushy sentiments or lots of flowers or hearts or teddy bears or such. So I decided to go with a design based off of this week’s Clean & Simple challenge at Splitcoaststampers.com. I did a mirror image of the sketch because I felt it looked better this way. It still kind of has a lot of hearts, but oh well. The pink hearts are actually just the red hearts stamped off once.
All supplies for today’s card are by Stampin’ Up:
Stamps: Branch Out, Short & Sweet, Small Sayings
Cardstock: Confetti White
Ink: Chocolate Chip, Certainly Celery, Ruby Red
Other: Seaside Ribbon Originals, sponge

Patricia! I big puffy heart your card! I think it is perfect because it captures the Valentine’s “I love you feel” while maintaining a bit of masculinity and not going to over the top. You knocked it out of the park! I hope your Hubs loves it!

Love that card. Clean and beautiful!!
