Happy Valentine's Day!!

Hey everyone - hope you're having a wonderful Valentine's Day! My mom's favorite day of the year since I was born that day - LOL. She'll always remember my birthday because her Valentine celebration was interrupted when her water broke! As first babies often do, I arrived a few weeks early - surprise, surprise.

Mom & Dad are getting the birdie Valentine I made for the January Twofer Card Challenge. Here are the other Valentines I made this year:

I used a new Memory Box die for many of the cards - Butterfly Heart Frame, minus the butterfly. What a gorgeous die and it cuts beautifully! The yummy stained glass heart is a new cling stamp from Taylored Expressions - Big Heart. I can't resist adding heart stuff to my stash and this year was no exception!! Other supplies were Hero Arts Nesting Hearts Infinity Dies and a retired Valentine clear set, Copic Markers and various stickers and papers. I sent my friend Heather a Valentine too - I'm afraid it's still in transit somewhere over the Atlantic....

I die cut the heart frame from three different colors, then mixed and matched them. I just love the different looks you can achieve just by switching the papers! I saved the narrow hearts that cut when I cut the frame and the pierced heart at the same time - using them for a card of their own.

Finally, here's a Valentine birthday card I made for my birthday twin, Lynn:

Supplies: Paper - DCWV Ms Sparkle A2 card; Neenah Classic Crest Solar White;

Patterned papers by unknown

Stamps - Penny Black Sweetheart & Hero Arts sentiment stamps (retired)

Other - Copic Markers; puffy heart sticker 

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful Valentine's Day! PS - How are you doing on your CAS Christmas card using the PEACE theme? We'll be doing a reminder post (I'm a guest designer this month) on the 17th and you have until the 24th to enter. I'm already behind on my 2019 Christmas card production but playing at CAS Christmas will certainly help me! Hope to see you there!!
