Valentine Owl

My daughter actually found some store-bought window cling valentines she wanted to use this year.  But she still insisted that we make some part of it by hand, because, you know, "it's just what I do." :)

Petal Parade and 4 Four You Cards





I have been looking for some clean and simple cards for a group of never-stamped-before people, and I think this might be one of them!  I love how you can change the colors and the sentiments and it was so easy!  I added a bit of shimmer using Dazzling Details.

Stamps:  Four You, Petal Parade
Inks:  Strawberry Slush/Wisteria Wonder/Coastal Cabana/Wild Wasabi
Paper:  Whisper White, Strawberry Slush/Wisteria Wonder/Coastal Cabana/Wild Wasabi
Other:  Dazzling Details

Thanks to Sharon Jaramillo for the inspiration for this card!

Serene Silhouettes Thinking of You

I am looking for some clean and simple cards to make with a group for Operation Write Home.  I don't think I will use this one since some people might not like eyeballing lining up the circles, and I don't want to break out the stamp-a-ma-jig, considering this will be a group of people most of whom are not experienced with stamping.  Still, this was a quick and easy card to make, and not a color combination I would normally have tried.  Thanks to the Color Coach for suggesting it! 

Stamps:  Serene Silhouettes, Four You
Inks:  Crumb Cake, Pacific Point, Cajun Craze
Paper:  Crumb Cake, Very Vanilla
