P retty Valentine card made with Stampin' Up! products.
Project Recipe
Cut cardstock and designer paper pieces to the following sizes using a Paper Trimmer and die:
- card from Flirty Flamingo Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" from Real Red Cardstock
- 4" x 5-1/4"" from Flirty Flamingo Cardstock
- 2-3/4" x 3" from Whisper White Cardstock
- small heart cut from a strip of small shiny pink hearts inside a scalloped white heart in lines on red background design from From My Heart Specialty Designer Series Paper, see step below for directions
Place the Detailed Hearts Die on top of the Flirty Flamingo rectangle on a platform on your cutting and embossing tool. Run through the tool. Use the Take Your Pick Die Brush Tip and paper-piercing tool on the Take Your Pick to remove the pieces. Save ALL the pieces.
Use the Fine-Tip Glue Pen or Multipurpose Liquid Glue to adhere the large, detailed, interlocked hearts cut out to the 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" Real Red rectangle so it is centered.
Adhere the Real Red rectangle with hearts attached to the front of the Flirty Flamingo card.
Mount the "Happy Valentine's Day," "Meant to Be," or "Just for You" sentiment from the Meant To Be Set on Block C. Ink it up with the Real Red Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the white rectangle.
Pick out the large, open, scallop-edged heart die that cuts out a heart that is 1-7/8" wide from the Stitched Be Mine Dies. Place the heart die on top of the stamped sentiment rectangle on a platform on your cutting and embossing tool so the sentiment is centered. Run through the tool. Use the Take Your Pick Die Brush Tip and paper-piercing tool on the Take Your Pick to remove the pieces.
Tip: This die cuts out the center heart shape which you are using on this project. It also cuts out a thin, scallop-edged heart frame. Please make sure you remove the scallop-edged heart frame from the die and throw it away.
Adhere the sentiment heart cut out to the front of the card near the top center.
Pick out the small, open, scallop-edged and stitched heart die that cuts out a heart that is 1" wide from the Stitched Be Mine Dies. Place the heart die on top of the designer paper on a platform on your cutting and embossing tool so the pink and white heart is centered. Run through the tool.
Use a Mini Stampin' Dimensional to adhere the designer paper heart cut out to the front of the card so it overlaps the lower right side of the white sentiment heart cut out just a bit.
Find one of the larger hearts cut out from the Flirty Flamingo Cardstock with the Detailed Hearts Die in the step above. Use a Mini Stampin' Dimensional to adhere the the small pink heart cut out to the front of the card so it overlaps the upper left side of the white sentiment heart cut out just a bit.
Tip: Save the rest of the little heart cut outs to use on another project or to decorate the inside of this card or the envelope.
Cut a 3-1/2" piece of Real Red 3/8" Double-Stitched Satin Ribbon.
Tie a half knot in the center of the ribbon. Trim the ends.
Use a Mini Glue Dot to adhere the ribbon knot to the card front at a slight angle on the bottom left side of the white sentiment heart cut out.
