Hello Friends!
Congratulations to the Ravens on their Super Bowl Win!! What did you think of half time?? I loved the performance by Beyonce she jammed didn't she? :) I hope you all had a fantastic weekend and so lets start this week with a non-traditional Valentine's card using some Basic Black and Yellow.

Don't forget to check out my weekend projects following this card 
Thank you for stopping by today and have a fabulous Monday!! 

I used some non traditional colors for my Valentine's card today:)  I decided to use some Basic Black and a bright Stampin' Up! retired Yellow and I'm sorry I can't remember the name.  The tickets were stamped using the That's The Ticket Stamp from the Spring Catalog HERE and then punched with the Ticket Duo Punch also available in the Spring Catalog.

The flowers were formed punching two blossoms using the Blossom Punch, I then used the 1-1/4" Scallop punch and the 7/8" Scallop Punch to layer perfectly on top. I also embossed the background with the Elegant Lines Textured Impressions Folder.

Hello Friends!
Surprised to see me posting today??  Well, I thought I would share some more Valentine's Day cards for that special someone in your life with some of my "NEW" Stampin' Up! products!!  

Today's card is a super cute and fun card created using a Hostess stamp set called Million Dollar Listings Stamp Set item#125137 and My Little Valentine Stamp Set Item#132242 that you can buy for $10 with your Hostess dollars earned. I also used a brand spanking NEW textured impressions folder called "Cloudy Day" Thanks for stopping by this Saturday and enjoy your weekend and join me again tomorrow for a new project:)

Notice the clouds that I cut from the embossing and the paper piecing on the umbrella and boots in Basic Gray:)  I also used Stampin' Up!'s adorable Petite Curly Label Punch, I LOVE LOVE this cute punch!!  This cute punch is FREE with your $50 order from the Sale- A-Bration catalog which you can view HERE.  The Real Red hearts are from the Owl Builder Punch{left over from another project}

Don't you just LOVE those clouds?? They look perfect as if there were really floating on the air:) I first embossed some Whisper White and then cut out each individual clouds and popped them up with some Stampin' dimensionals!!  I used Raspberry Ripple and Primrose card stock and ink.

A side view of those clouds again!  I must say that I was not a big fan of the Cloudy Day Textured Impression folder at first but after seeing the display boards at leadership with so many cute cards you know I just had to get it:)

Hello Friends!
Woo Hoo it's Friday and so ready for my weekend to start!! I hope you will stop by this weekend, I plan to make some cards and maybe a video?  Do you have a favorite card I've created and would LOVE to see a video on how to make it yourself????  Your wish is my command so put your request in:) LOL!!

Thank you for visiting today and I hope you like today's card created using the sketch from Freshly Made Sketches.  Have a fantastic weekend.

Here is a close up of the Designer Builder Brad that you can put together with our tiny adorable stamp set Itty Bitties Wood Stamp Set Item#128939. Can you see the heart embossing on the Calypsol Coral? Well I created my very own heart embossing folder which was a fabulous idea that Samantha Roberts share on a Stampin' Up! video at Regionals.

The Happy Valentines Heart is a single stamp that you can check out HERE to read all about it:) The sentiment come from the Fabulous Phrases Stamp set.

This is the embossing folder I created using the card board that comes in the designer paper packs. All you have to do is pick your desired design to create the raised impression. In my case I used the Framelits Hearts Collection Dies and die cut FIVE hearts and glued each one on top of the other to create the raised hearts which will create the hearts impression.  If you would like a how to video put it on the comments below  and I will make a video:)
