Valentine’s to share with you

Hi everyone!  Cathy here with you today and I have a couple of Valentines to share with you.  Valentine’s Day is just right around the corner and Lori has lots of fun new files in her shop and lots of other Valentine files that make creating ideas for this romantic day almost endless.  You can check out all of Lori’s files here.

I used her new Heart Gift Bag file along with Carta Bella’s Amour Collection.  So cute and went together in a matter of minutes.  The perfect size to hold Hershey Kisses or any other small little treats.

Next I made a box card…I love these, they are just so much fun and they are a delight for the recipient.  They fold flat and fit into an A2  envelope for mailing.  I used the A2 Box Card Valentine XO file.  All of theses box card files are color coded, so they are super easy to make.  Just fold on the score lines, glue and you have the cutest little card ever.  I used the Amour collection from Carta Bella for this project too!  So many fun little details for all of these box cards.

We would love to see what you create with Lori’s files for Valentine’s Day, feel free to share them on Lori’s Facebook page which you can find here.

3D Deer Frame Card with Courtney Lee

Hi out there!!! Courtney Lee from Court’s Crafts here to show you what I did with Lori’s 3D Frame Card Deer cut file! I had a blast making this. I needed something quick and darling so I could get a thank you note out. Lori to the rescue!

I bought the deer version of this card because I love deer but also because it has a ton of things you can add/subtract/move around. You’ll see that my card doesn’t use half of the parts that you receive with the cut file! I love that I have so much more to play with!

I really wanted to keep it simple. I grabbed Lori’s A Story of Christmas for Echo Park Paper and went to work. The wood grain in this collection is scrumptious and I wanted to get that in there and highlight it. So when I went to put the frame layer over the edges, I decided to leave it alone instead. It’s it pretty!?

I also loved her “believe” sentiment and the whimsy it brought out in me. It just makes me want to stand in the middle of a snow flurry! But alas, I am in California where 55 is a “freezing” day. Snow flurries will have to be left to the imagination. I reinforced the believe in the back by putting foam dots one on top of another until it reached the hight of the frame. This gave the sentiment a lot of stability.

Did you see that darling snowman on the stickers page? I had to use him. I added some black Stickles for his buttons as well as his hat and added an enamel dot to the holly. Done and darling!

Lastly, I cut out two snowflakes using the dies that coordinate with this collection. I saved the centers of them (the stars) and put those around as well. I added some Stickles to the little stars to give them some shine.

That’s it! Easy-peasy! I attached it to an A2 card base, cut out an envelope box (that comes with the cut file!!!), tied some twine around it and I was ready to roll! Grab this 3D Frame Card Deer cut file and make it yours! You’ll love it!

I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas!
