Hello my friends! Michele here - are you as ready as I am to put Christmas behind you? Time for us to get our Valentines ready, right?
The key to my Valentine's heart is definitely through his love of sweets!
It was easy to bake him this sweetheart cookie card using the layering
Essential Hearts dies from Spellbinders!
The largest was cut from vanilla cardstock, the second from bright pink. Each one given a little bit of blending on their edges using one shade darker ink. Then the pink heart was treated to clear embossing ink, followed by layers of clear embossing powder until it had enough shine to appear as Royal Icing...
A 'heart-shaped' card was cut using the largest die, a 4/25" card base - fold at the top and left intact by nudging the die just above the fold. Snip just a little from the back panel and magic happens...
My GIANT kisses and hugs are a fun die from Lawn Fawn cut from white card that were also iced using Nuvo Crystal Drops in Glossy White before having a little fun adding Pinkfresh Studios Magenta Glitter Drops!
I hope I've given you a fun idea for your own Valentines!
