Postage Valentine Cards

Hello! Today I have 2 Postage Valentine Cards to share using more new products from Miss Ink Stamps. I love how many different looks you can get with these sets!





Watch the video below or on YouTube:













My first card brings together quite a few sets (some mini sets, too!) to create this fun postage Always card. I love all these new sets: Look at those little letters! The faux wax seal is from the Postage Seal and Shaker Collection.






		
		
			
			
		
	






		
		
			
			
		
	





I couldn’t resist creating a second card with many same elements, but bringing in the SWAK Hearts Postage die set. It was begging to include the Queen of Heart on the heart postage! See how I masked her off for the postage heart in the video.

Mini Valentine Shaker Notes
By  on February 13, 2024  in Holidays, Paper Crafting, Valentines   

	

	    

Hello! It’s an exciting day for me to share some Mini Valentine Shaker Notes…these are little note card sized shakers that are oh-so-sweet. I hope you enjoy!





Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:













These note cards measure 3.5″ x 4.25″ so they are a nice little size to fit into a lunch bag or a briefcase! (Wink*) I love how easy they are to build up with the polaroid die from Whimsy Stamps. I will show you in the video how to make the “walls” to keep the shaker bits inside the shaker, and how to add the acetate topper.





I used a variety of stamps and dies to decorate the fronts of each card, all images that I LOVE!

This Polaroid Die fits a slimline card, and for the mini cards I cut it apart to build up the shakers. It is also a cute design to make a slimline card, so I have included a sample of that here:






		
		
			
			
		
	





I hope you enjoyed these projects today! I wish you a very happy Valentine’s Day (aka Hugs Day!) filled with love. See you soon with more cards!

Llots of Llove (Llama Valentine)

Hello, today I have a card with Llots of Llove: a Llama Valentine! Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:














		
		
			
			
		
	





I just love the Coffee Cup Shaker Die…which I used on this card, but did not turn it into a shaker card. I have used this die many times in the past, and was excited to create with it again in a different way.





The sentiment is from the Perfect Blend stamp set, and that Llama is from the Llamazing Llamas stamp set. Such a cute llama!!






		
		
			
			
		
	





I blended Oxide inks on some kraft cardstock first, then I used the same stencil on some white cardstock for the coffee cup sleeve.





The little tag was perfect for the “llots of llove” stamp from the same Llama set. I hope you smile at a llama with his tea cup to go!
