Be My Valentine for CC2C

Roses are…coral,

Violets are blue,

I’m looking forward to Valentine’s Day,

Are you?

Rosanne in Pennsylvania and I, California Karen, are bringing you Valentine cards for CASEing Coast to Coast this month. It will be here soon! Do you make valentines? Do you make valentine treat boxes for your friends? For your “Gal-entines,” perhaps? I don’t do a lot, but there are a few people I like to remember on February 14th. Here is one card that someone will be receiving from me. Our theme this month is “Be My Valentine” for CC2C!

I used a mash-up of products on this card. First of all, the DSP, Fancy Flora 6″x 6″ DSP, is one of my favorites! The colors are so pretty! Here’s a closer look at this exceptional paper ~

For the sentiment and stamped hearts, I used Country Bouquet Stamp Set & Punch. For the cut hearts and oval frame, I used Framed Florets Dies.

Measurements:

• Orchid Oasis Cardstock base, 11″x 4-1/4″, scored and folded at 5-1/2″
• Petal Pink Cardstock layer, 5-1/8″x 3-7/8″
• Fancy Flora DSP, 5″x 3-3/4″
• Basic White Cardstock for sentiment, 2-3/4″x 1/2″

Step-By-Step Instructions:

• Glue the DSP to the Petal Pink layer and use the oval heart die from Framed Florets to cut the tiny hearts through both layers.
• Cut and stack three layers of white oval frames. Glue them together and glue to the card front.
• Stamp Happy Valentine’s Day in Orchid Oasis ink onto the sentiment strip. Add with Dimensionals.
• Stamp the large heart with Flirty Flamingo ink and the small heart with Orchid Oasis ink and punch both out with the Country Floral Punch. Glue them to the frame and to each other. I used one Mini Dimensional under the lower left side of the small heart.
• Adhere the layers to the card base with Dimensionals.
• Add 5 Iridescent Rhinestones to the front.
• For the envelope, glue the remaining 6″x 2-1/4″ piece of DSP to the back flap and trim.
