I used some Kraft cardstock, cut to 4.25" x 4.25" and some stamps from Hero Arts "Valentine Sayings" clear stamp set. To create the hearts, I used a punch from Stampin Up along with some FREE colored paper. Yep, totally free
...paint samples!!
I thought these would be fun to use because they have a perfect gradient of color. I had fun picking out a few swatches that would be great to use on Valentine's Day. I've seen people make Christmas trees with these too - so much you can do.
I used some foam adhesive to adhere all of the hearts to give the cards a little more interest, as they are pretty simple to begin with.
...and just a fun little sentiment on the inside. I will be listing this set for sale in my Etsy shop if any of you are interested
Have a great week!
