Valentine's Inspiration - Day 7

Thanks for joining us again today for our Day 7 of Valentine's Inspiration.

With one day left until Valentine's Day we have some wonderful card ideas to share with you today

*******



Love You More is just the most wonderful collection ever.  I can't seem to stop creating with it.  I love absolutely everything in the collection-the chevrons, colors, buttons, sticker sheet, journaling cards.  I could go on and on.  Today  I made 3 cards to share. I really wanted to show off the variety in the pattern papers along with the awesome stickers.  Combine these two ingredients along with some of the awesome embellishments and you have the perfect cards

"XOXO"
My first card highlights the wonderful sticker border and sentiment along with the awesome pattern papers.



Supplies: paper, stickers, button- imaginisce (love you more); Tools- I Rock (hot rocks);Twine- Personal Stash


"Always & Forever"
My second card I wanted to add a bit more bling so I used the I Rock stencil kit and made a wonderful flourish.  I also had to include the awesome hexagons and cut them out to make a border.

Supplies: paper, sticker- Imaginisce (Love You More); Tools- I Rock (hot rocks and stencil kit), Silhouette

"Be Mine"
For my third card I really wanted the red chevron paper to stand out and placed it on a light background with the light pink pattern paper.  I then pop dotted my sticker and sentiment on to the card to add a bit of dimension.  Finally I added some buttons from the collection.


Supplies: paper, stickers, buttons- Imaginisce (Love You More); Cardstock- bazzill




I think that the LOVE YOU MORE collection is one of my most favorites from Imaginisce. The colors and the designs are just perfect & make creating projects a joy!

Be Mine
I used one of the large stickers as the main sentiment & focal point on this first card. I added a little dimension by adhereing the gray banner sticker with foam tape & some texture with the pretty gray ribbon from May Arts.


Supplies used: Imaginisce (Love You More: patterned papers, Love Birds 12x12 sticker sheet; foam tape (white))
Other: Ribbon (May Arts); Cardstock (Core'dinations Colorcore cardstock)


 I "Heart" You 
I created this 'tic tac toe' idea on cardstock using the LYM Washi tape. That stuff is so fun & easy to use. I embellished the grid design with some LYM buttons and alpha stickers.

Supplies used: Imaginisce (Love You More: patterned papers, Washi tape, buttons; foam tape)
Other: twine (The Twinery); Cardstock (Core'dinations Colorcore cardstock)

    Great cards! I love the colors and designs of this collection!
    I cut out some heart doilies from a new die I purchased! At this point, that's as far as I've gotten on making some Valentine cards!

    I have to admit, I really didn't make anything this Valentine's Day (turns out I've been in bed this past week!) My plan though, was to make a Chinese takeout style box (so close to Chinese New Year this year) and fill it with some homemade fortune cookies with love notes inside, then give it to my hubby! However, I didn't get to this for this Valentine's Day, but it's on my planning list for next year!

    I would like to start a journal on the 15th and write a love note a day to my hubby and then decorate it and give it to him next Valentines Day.
