I love how this card came out! Inside it says "Let's French." 😄 I'm very glad I made this for my husband so that it stays in our house and I can keep looking at it. 😊 I was inspired by a design by The Paper Crown NYC. This was actually my first full size… Continue reading A Parisian Valentine
I have this old paper pack from My Favorite Things that I always want to use up, and Valentine's is the perfect time to use it. I think I could've filled in the letters on the hearts with a solid color to make it easier to read but I find this paper kind of hard… Continue reading Candy Hearts
I wasn't kidding when I said I loved that background ink combo! This was my take on an Audrey T. design. I just had to incorporate that background again. 😊 Materials used: Large Stitched RectanglesChili Pepper cardstockOutside In Stitched Rectangle StackablesDistress oxide inks: Tattered Rose, Worn Lipstick, Festive Berries, Tumbled Glass, Antique Linen, Brushed CorduroyWhite… Continue reading Valentine’s Dinos
This was a design by Elise C. that I recreated. When ink blending the clouds in the background I used the Cloudy Stencil as normal, and then I removed the stencil and very lightly ink blended over the whole area, including the white area of the clouds. I liked how this made everything look very… Continue reading Rawr and Rawr Flip Flop
I really liked this color combo and wanted to keep making more cards with it. I like it with the ink splatters better (like on the previous mini slimline card I posted) but I wasn't sure that would look right on these cards. Materials used: Stitched Cloud Backdrop PortraitDistress oxide inks: Tattered Rose, Worn Lipstick,… Continue reading One Background, Two Cards
This was based on a card that Megan made that I changed slightly. I just love the colors of the background. Spoiler alert: I have already used this combination on several other cards so this blog is about to be full of these colors. 😄 Materials used: Large Mini Slimline StackablesChili Pepper cardstockSmall Mini Slimline… Continue reading Scent With Love Mini Slimline

This design was inspired by Mindy E. It had been awhile since I had used the Fab Flowers set and I like the way this turned out. This was also my first card with the Quilted Heart Backdrop and I think it's very pretty. Materials used: Cardstock: Mermaid, Chili Pepper, Sparkle HolidayQuilted Heart Backdrop PortraitLacy… Continue reading Lacy Heart and Giant XOXO
My first mini slimline! I really like this card size. The only downside is that it's not easy to find pre-made card bases that match this size and I don't want to have to measure out and make one every time. But I like the look. This was a scene by Marine that I recreated,… Continue reading Breakfast Scene Card Recreation
This card was inspired by a card with the same layout by Lawn Fawn's Design Team member Lynette. I used different papers and colors on mine and I love the way it turned out! The Mermaid cardstock with the beautiful plaid and then the pink, I just think they all go together so wonderfully. It… Continue reading You Color My World
This card is fairly simple but I really like how it turned out! I ink blended the sky using Seedless Preserves, Blueprint Sketch, and Chipped Sapphire distress oxide inks. I love the detail in the sky once you spritz with water and let the oxide inks react! The silver heat embossed stars turned out just… Continue reading Written In The Stars

The mailbox on this card is from a retired Lawn Fawn stamp set called "You've Got Mail." I had wanted it for a long while and was absolutely thrilled when I was able to purchase a new set from someone selling it! So far this has happened to me twice (I'll point out the other… Continue reading You’ve Got (Valentine’s) Mail
This card was supposed to resemble a box of Valentine's chocolates... but I don't think the idea really came across. I wanted to add little wrappers behind the hearts but didn't have time. Oh well! It did reawaken my love for the Polka Heart Backdrop. 🙂 The words were nice and sparkly too. It's hard… Continue reading Valentine’s Candy Box
I used the same camera design that I used on a previous card, and in hindsight I wish I had added a few more decorations to the front of it. If I were to make this card again I would definitely change up the design. The mechanics of this card design also confuse me a… Continue reading Mermaid For Each Other

I was very inspired by Elena from the Lawn Fawn design team and her Valentine's cards this year. I just had to recreate two of them myself! I think Valentine's cards are especially fun to send because it's a holiday when many people aren't expecting to receive a card. So you get to send some… Continue reading Two Valentine’s Cards
I really like how this card turned out! I have to find more opportunities to use that lacy heart die; I just love it! I wasn't sure how the scene setting on this card would turn out while I was making it but I really like it! I blended some Tumbled Glass and Salty Ocean… Continue reading A Nice Mice Valentine’s Card
