Valentine Corner Cafe

Hello, today I am creating a scene…. on a card! I had an idea to create a little Valentine Corner Cafe using dreamy magentas and greys. This would be a little Corner Cafe you would love to visit, and it’s especially cute just in time for Valentine’s Day!

I’m using fun techniques to get some 3D detail; like: heat embossing, foam tape, and 3D coloring. Watch all the details at the video below or in HD on YouTube:

Isn’t this the cutest Corner Cafe? I’m imagining you can get coffee, crepes, hot cocoa, and smoothies there! What about cute little sandwiches, too?

Color Block Mini Valentines

Hello! Today I have a fun Mini Valentines project using some Color Block stamps from Maker Forte. These are the coolest stamps: you can stamp the outline block in one color, and the inside heart in another color creating a very beautiful & graphic Valentine!

I love this set so much! I had a great time combining it with this set for the sentiments, that I stamped in a nice black ink over the top of the colored hearts.

Two shades of pink
Offset heart

For the blue card, I offset the heart a little, to leave a white shadow. I think this creates a fun, whimsy look!

To make this project so easy, I first cut the heavy weight cardstock into 6″ x 3″ panels. Then I stamped the images using my Misti. It was nice to have a longer panel to hold it down with the magnet.

Once they were stamped, I scored the panel at 3″ and folded it in half to create these mini 3″ Valentines.

Buttercup & Grapefruit

These are so easy to put together and I love how fast these sets make mini Valentines!

Consider Yourself Hugged

Hello! Today I have a Valentine full of hearts and bears. This started off with a pink piece of cardstock and just got more pink from there! Lol. Sometimes a Valentine is just full of pink

When I saw this Layered Heart Stencil I fell in love and knew it needed to come live at my house. I used two shades of pink ink to add these hearts to the pink cardstock.

Then I white heat embossed the large XOXO onto another piece of pink cardstock. I white heat embossed the sub-sentiment onto black cardstock. I colored up those cute bears and cut them out.

Then, it was just a matter of putting this all together and adding a piece of pink glitter tape. Love a little glitter!

I hope you enjoyed this Valentine Bear card today! I think I’ll try this heart stencil with lots of colors next time.
