More Valentine's Day cards
WARNING: If you are one of my sisters, my mom, or any of my employees, your Valentine's Day card is shown in this post!

This weekend was dedicated to all things crafty. I needed to finish up some technique samples for a class that Beth and I are teaching at CHA (along with the fabulous Crystal Jeffrey Rieger). And because I will be at CHA until the day before Valentine's Day, I wanted to finish up all my cards as well. Lucky for me, the creativity just flowed, and I'm very happy with the results.

    
I made two different cards: one kind for my niece and nephews and a different one for the grown-ups. For the kids, I cut a heart from a piece of patterned paper and adhered the patterened paper to cardstock. Then I filled in the cut out heart with Diamond Glaze, sprinkled on some Making Memories glitter, and let it dry. Sparkly!

For the grown-up cards, I embroidered hearts onto felt, cut them out with my pinking shears, and glued each onto some Chatterbox patterened paper and then onto cardstock. I freehand embroidered the hearts, so each one has its own personality. Fun!

How are your Valentine's Day cards coming along?

Until next time,
Christine
