be my valentine

I forgot to get out this pretty heart last year and made sure I did for this year's Valentines Day. Lisa is our hostess for Just Us Girls Die Week #761: Use a Heart and I knew that this Greetery die set was perfect for the challenge. It only takes a minute to die cut once you choose your papers! Do get out your heart dies and join us this week! Check out all of the team cards as well as that of our new February guest, Stephanie Severin.







Products I used:

The Greetery: Heart Arrow Die set

Simon Says Stamp: Wonky Rectangles die set

Stampin; Up!: P.S. I Love You stamp set

Concord and 9th: Mushroom mini ink pad

Park Lane: Foil Printed Paper Pad - Amsterdam Big Deal

Gold vellum sheet

White cardstock


The patterned paper sheet that I chose for my background is just one of many fun and pretty patterns in this paper pad and it matched my gold arrow! I stamped my sentiment on a scrap of this paper and fussy cut it into a rectangle. I chose this stitched rectangle die to cut the rectangle in order to keep the swirly pattern theme going. I plan to make more of this card design because it is simple and quick! I channeled my friend Karen Walker's sleek style (Instagram post) when making this card. 

Will we see your heart die creations in our gallery this week? Hope so!
