Valentine Teacher Treat and Card

Today is the boys Valentine Party at daycare.  So Grandma came up with a quick and easy way to package Hershey Bars for all the teachers.  I was running behind on all my work so I chose to take the easy way out this year.  I took a 5-1/2" x 6" piece of DSP and wrapped it around the Hershey bar.  I then took a 2" x 11" piece of contrasting Card Stock and punched each end using the Scallop Tag Topper  Punch.  Through each hole on the end, I took Seam Binding Ribbon and tied a bow in the middle adhering the strip together.  

Here is a list of supplies that I used for this project:

STAMP SET:  None
PAPER:  DSP from the Reals Paper Stack, White Card stock
INK:  None
ACCESSORIES: Scallop Tag Topper Punch, Cherry Cobbler Seam Binding Ribbon

Quick and easy and a cute way to dress up a plain wrapped Hershey Bar for a special occasion.

This card is a CASE form Dawn Oshefske.  Her card was done in Crumb Cake but I changed up the colors of the card.  I left the sentiment because I thought that was a nice sentiment for the teachers at school and it fit perfectly with the sweet chocolate bar.

The supplies that I used for this card were:

STAMP SET: You Plus Me

PAPER: Stacked with Love DSP Paper Stack

INK:  Basic Black

ACCESSORIES:  White Stitched Grosgrain Ribbon (RETIRED)

Thank goodness all my Valentines are now all finished and all the boys Valentines are finished.  Now I can breathe and start thinking of Easter ideas.  Enjoy the day!

Emmett's Class's Valentines

Today I finished Emmett's daycare school Valentines for their party on Friday.  Yesterday another child was added to the list so I had to quickly make another one.  This candy treat holder was another quick and easy project to make.  When you are making 23-25 or more items, you really can not make projects that take a long time to make.

The supplies that I used for this candy treat holder were:

STAMP SET:  Hey, Valentine
PAPER: Real Red, Whisper White, Stacked With Love DSP Stack Pad
INK: Tuxedo Black Memento 
ACCESSORIES: Party Banners Bigz Die, Big Shot, 1/8" Circle Punch, Stampin' Trmmer,  Silver Metallic Baker's Twine, Cherry Cobbler, Daffodil Delight and Skintone Blendabilities

On the back of this project, I used a Chalk Marker to write the names of the students that are going to receive this cute Valentine Treats.

I saw how to make this treat holder on Dawn Oshefske's blog.  You can go over to her blog and check out the video tutorial she has posted on her blog.  I would like to thank Dawn for this tutorial.  She really help make my Valentine making easier this year.  Enjoy the day!

Eli's Class Valentine Cards

I have been making Eli's class Valentine's since he started to go to daycare.  This year was the easiest year to come up with an idea because Eli loves "Jake and the Neverland Pirates".  So it was a given that I would buy the stamp set "HEY VALENTINE".  That set has the cutest little pirate stamp and I knew he would fall in live with it.  Grandma was right and he was so excited for me to start my design for his card.  






I was so excited to do this for him.  So I starting thinking about the cartoon show and they are always collecting gold dubloons.  I then thought it would be cute to find those big, gold foiled candy coins and add it to his card.  So here is a pic of the inside of the card.  I decided to make it a match book card so I would be ale to fit the coins into the card.  I adhered the candy with Glue Dots


These are the supplies that I used for this card:

STAMP SETS:  Hey, Valentine, Delightful Dozen (retired set)
PAPER:  Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White
INK:  Cherry Cobbler
ACCESSORIES:  Gold Foil Candy Coins, Stapler, Glue Dots, Black Marker, Smokey Slate, Cherry Cobbler, Pumpkin Pie, Wild Wasabi, Daffodil Delight and Skintone Blendabilities

I used the Be My Valentine stamp for the inside even though it was retired because Eli is going to stamp the sentiments for his cards.  He wanted to do something to help so I let him use my retired stamps for these cards and the ones he wants to make for his teachers.  He is thrilled!  But he does have one concern.  He wonders if his friend in preschool will know how to open the card to get to the candy!  But after thinking about theta problem for a while, he has decided he will show all of his friends how to open it.  Guess my idea for the Matchbox Card was not a hit with him.

It has been a long time since I posted and I truly have missed sharing with you.  A relative went into the hospital which already added to a crazy month.  Trying to get rid of my Bronchial pneumonia, getting ready for Leadership and then going to Leadership,  has helped to make it a very stressful month.  But I am better and the relative is now home, so I am ready and eager to start posting again!  Enjoy the day!

Hey, Valentine - Part 2

What is a Valentine Party at schools or daycares without some treats?  Every year when I make the Valentine Cards for my grandsons' daycare Valentine events, I always add a little treat.  Using the "Hey, Valentine" stamp set, I was able to create little toppers for a small snack.  You could easily just stamp the topper with one color as shown in the Occasions catalog.  But I chose to stamp the topper with Memento Ink and color in the image using one of my favorite products, "BLENDABILITIES"!

The supplies that I used to create this cute treat holder were:

STAMP SET:  Hey, Valentine!
PAPER:  Whisper White
INK:  Tuxedo Black Memento Ink
ACCESSORIES:  Jelly Beans (non SU), 1" x 8" Cello Bag, Gift Bag Framelits, Soft Sky, Pumpkin Pie and Cherry Cobbler Blendabilities


These are so  cute!  I used Jelly Beans to fill them but you could use M&M's.  I would use the special ones that you find around Valentine's Day.  They are usually white, pink, and red.  So those would be perfect!  Any kid would love to get one of these.  I was thinking of doing these, but not sure for which Grandson's class or maybe for the teachers in their daycare.  Quick and easy gift and it makes a statement.  The hardest part for me was stuffing it with the jelly beans.

Another day of no talking, taking meds and staying in bed, trying to kick this illness.  I guess this is what happens when you take care of everyone else first.  The last person always ends up getting it the worst.  Enjoy your day!

A New Year and a Pirate

My New Year's Resolution is to be more consistent with my blog.  So today I am starting with a renewed energy and commitment.  So here is a cute Kids card made with the stamp set "HEY VALENTINE" from the Occasions catalog. Isn't he cute!  Eli said he thought the little boy looked like him.  He was so excited to see this card and asked me to make his classroom valentines using this stamp set.  He also gave me orders to make one for him.

From the first time I saw this image, I knew I had to include a map with it.  I guess I thought I needed a map because the boys are really into "Jake and the Neverland Pirates" on TV. On that show they are always looking at maps, so I thought I really need to put that in.

The supplies that I used for this card were:

STAMP SET:  Hey, Valentine
PAPER:  Basic Black, Whisper White, Cherry Cobbler
INK:  Smokey Slate, Tuxedo Black Memento Ink
ACCESSORIES:  Dimensionals, Circle Framelits, 1-1/4" Cheery Cobbler Striped Grosgrain Ribbon, Smokey Slate, Skin Tone, Daffodil Delight, Cherry Cobbler, Pumpkin Pie, and Wild Wasabi Blendabilities

I think it is a great set to use for kids valentine cards.  If you don't ink the sentiment, you can use this image for a kids card for any occasion.  

When I checked my blog today, I did not realize that I had not posted for so long.  The last month has been crazy with the holidays and the viruses, ink eyes, and ear infections that have been floating throughout the whole family.  I am hopefully ending this horrible streak of sickness with Bronchitis.  Still recovering from that one.  Today I felt good enough to try to stick to my New Years resolution.  I am going to be more consistent with my blog and try some new things.  

Well, I am off for another day of rest and meds.  I am hoping by the end of the week I will be ok.  Thank goodness that I do not have to watch any boys for a few days. I can rest and get better. Enjoy your day!

A Valentine for the Teacher

I finished Eli's and Emmett's valentines for their respective classes.  So then I had to come up with cards for their teachers.  These cards were my favorites of all that I had done this month.  So I decided if I loved them, then they should love them too. 

As I was checking out various blogs and checking out what wonderful projects other demos have come up with.  And I found this gorgeous card done by Sandi McGiver and went crazy.  I just think the gold and white is so stunning.  So of course I had to CASE it and here it is just like hers.  But then I wondered what would it look like if I swapped out some of the gold for red.  

So this is my version using Real Red, Red Glimmer Paper, and Cherry Cobbler Embossing Powder.  IT gives it a different look but I like it.  So this is the card that I decided to go with for both of their teachers.  These are the supplies that I used for my card for the teachers were:

STAMP SET:  Best of 25 Years…Love, and Flowerful Heart , Glorious Grundge
PAPER:  Whisper White, Red Glimmer Paper
INK:  Real Red, Versa mark
ACCESSORIES:  Watercolor Wonder Designer Washi Tape, Small Heart Punch, Adorning Accents Embossing Folder, Heart Embosslits, Big Shot, Gold Embossing Powder, Cherry Cobbler Embossing Powder, Heating Tool, Dimensionals


It is amazing how just a change of color can totally change the feel of the card.  Next time try making one card and then make it again using a whole different color scheme.  You will be surprised how much color can change your card.  

I enjoy making gifts and cards for the boys teachers and classmates.  I hope they enjoy it also.   Enjoy the day!

A Valentine for Eli

Eli needs Valentine Cards for his daycare class.  So Grandma volunteered to make his valentines   Of course!  I love to stamp and I love my grandson, so what could be better than stamping for your grandson.  Right now he is into trucks.  Chuck the truck, monster trucks, Mater the truck and on and on.  His birthday invites were made using the retired stamp set, "I Dig You".  So I decided to keep going with that theme and do an "I Dig You" valentine.  Remember these are for 3 year olds and they want it to be one piece and no envelopes.  So this is the simple card I came up with.

He loved it!  He said Grandma is that for me?  It has my favorite color red and my I love hearts!  So how could I go wrong with this?  For this card I used:

STAMP SETS:  Teeny Tiny Wishes, I Dig You (retired)
PAPER:  Whisper WHite, Real Red, Red Glimmer Paper
INK:  Real Red
ACCESSORIES:  Small Heart Punch, Heart Framelits, Daffodil Delight, Smokey Slate, and Basic Black Markers

I know it is not a spectacular card, but my grandson thinks it is perfect.  And that is all that matters to me!  Enjoy the day!

A Monster I Love You

I forgot to post this little gem after our Downline 

Meeting in January.  This was the Make & 

Take that Susan presented to our downlines.  I thought it was adorable and was a great way to show a different way to use the Sweetheart Treat Bags.  

I always like it when I can use a product for a number of different reasons and ways.  I like to use the old saying, "Getting more  bang for your buck".  I think customers will buy a product sooner if they know you can use it in a number of different ways.  

The supplies that we used for this project were:

STAMP SETS:  None

PAPER:  Whisper White, Soft Sky, Real Red, Silver Glimmer Paper, Midnight Musem Calyso Coral

INK:  None

ACCESSORIES:  Sweetheart Treat Bag, Monster Hugs Girls, Heart (from the Circle Card Thinlets),7/8" Scallop Punch, 3/4" Circle Punch, 1/2" Circle Punch, Heart Framelits, Arrows Embossing Folder, Big Shot, Dimensionals

I did not show this sooner because by the time I remembered that I did not post it, the promotion for this product was ending.  But GOOD NEWS… this product and some of the other products from the A Whole Lot of Love promotion that was to end on January 27th are still for sale until they run out of the product or until February 14th.  

Today I will be working on Valentine Cards for Eli's Class.  When I finish, I will share with you.  Enjoy the day!

Peek A Boo Valentine

Today I am going to share another card that is being offered at my Valentine Buffet.  The reason I called it my peek a boo card was because I punched out a hole on the front of the card stock and the heart was placed on the inside of the card.  This is a very simple streamlined card and I think perfect for the male in your life.  It is not a puffy card at all.

The supplies that were used for this card were:

STAMP SET:  None
PAPER:  Basic Black, Real Red, Whisper White, Silver Glimmer Paper, Red Glimmer Paper
INK:  None (unless you stamp a sentiment inside)
ACCESSORIES:  1/8" Silver Ribbon, 3/8" White Taffeta Ribbon, 2-1/2" Circle Punch, Full Heart Punch, Small Heart Punch, Scallop Border Punch, Beautifully Baroque Embossing Folder, Rhinestone Jewels, Red Sharpie (non SU)

I love the glitz on this (of course) and there is nothing on this card the makes it feel girly girl.  This is the card that I am going to give my husband this year for Valentine's Day.  I think he will like it because he knows it comes from the heart.

The snow is over and now for the shoveling out.  A friend of ours came over and plowed the driveway.  I am waiting for my son in law and the boys to come up to shovel my sidewalks.  It was beautiful yesterday watching the snow fall.  I watched the whole day!  Enjoy the day!

My Hearts A Flutter!

I love love love vellum!  In the Occasions Catalog Stampin' Up is offering Vellum with metallic accents.  There are sheets with hearts, dots,  and stripes.  It comes in packages and in gold.  So it was quite natural to design a card using the vellum.  

This is another card for my Valentine Buffet.  This card has a little glitz but I think it is still eloquent.  I used the stamp set "HEARTS A FLUTTER".  I just bought it and I do not know what I was waiting for.  I really like this set.  

The supplies that I used for this card were:

STAMP SETS:  Hearts A Flutter, Best of 25 Years…Love
PAPER:  Real Red, Whisper WHite, Silver Foil Sheets, Fancy Foil Designer Vellum, Red Glimmer Paper, Real Red Designer Paper Stack
INK:  Real Red, Black Stazon
ACCESSORIES:  Jewel Rhinestones, Dazzling Diamonds, Dimensionals, Banner Framelits, Hearts A Flutter Framelits, Mini Glue Dots

I placed Whisper White card stock under the vellum so you would be able to see the foil hearts better.  To adhere the vellum to the card stock, I used Mini Glue dots under the foil hearts so you can not see the glue dots.  I am happy how it turned out.  

If you are interested in attending my Valentine Buffet on January 25, contact me for more specific info.  Today I only have 1 grandson so it is easier to go out to stores and pick up what I need.  So I am off.  Enjoy the day!

Love You to the Moon

I am putting the finishing touches on my Valentine Buffet Event.  My customers are always looking for a kids card.  When I saw the sentiment in the stamp set, "LOVE YOU TO THE MOON AND BACK",  my mind went immediately to the stamp set "BLAST OFF".  And this is what I came up with for that event.

It is a little labor intensive because there are a few more steps than I usually do for a  group event.  But I could not help myself once I started working on this card.  Kids love shiny and glitzy things and I made sure that there was plenty of shine and glitz on this card.  I kind of went a little overboard on this but I think kids will like it.

The supplies that I used for this card were:

STAMP SETS:  Blast Off, Love You to the Moon and Back, Glorious Grunge
PAPER:  Basic Gray, Basic Black, Smokey Slate, Whisper White, Red Glimmer Paper
INK:  Night go Navy, Versamark
ACCESSORIES:  Silver Embossing Powder, Melon Mambo, Heating Tool, Small Heart Punch, 1/2" Circle Punch, 3/4" Circle Punch, 1-1/4" Circle Punch, Dimensionals

My customers liked it last night when my Technique Class saw it.  All of them are coming to the event and ALL are making this card.  So I must have done something right with this card.  

The Valentine Buffet event will be held on January 25.  If interested in attending, contact me.  Today I have no babies to watch, so I will be working on card for my February Stamp A Stack.  Enjoy the day!

A Rose for You

Another project that will be offered at the Valentine Stamp Buffet.  This is a mini frame that is decorated with a rose which was made using the Spiral Flower Die.  That is a new die which can be found in the Occasions Catalog.  You can use the die to create 3 dimensional flowers.  We made those flowers on Saturday and decided to use them to decorate the frame.  The frames were found on a "field trip" to some discount stores.  I love it when I am able to find cheap items that I can decorate using Stampin' Up products.

What we did was to stamp an insert into the frame.  We used the Eiffel Tower from the stamp set, Follow My Heart.  And here is the great part…  If you do not like that image, you can stamp on other card stock or DSP and place that in the frame!  You make a lot of different inserts and so you will be able to use it for a number of different occasions.

The 2 stamp sets that were used for this project were Perfect Pennants and Follow My Heart.


What a cute little gift to give a friend, co-worker, teacher, or family member.  It is small enough to fit on a desk at work.  I love it because it can be used all through the year not just at Valentine's Day.  Check back all this week to see other projects that will be offered.

I will be hosting this event at my home on January 25 @ 10 AM.  If interested or would like more information, please contact me.  Enjoy the day!

Valentines in the House

Myself, Susan and her downline Karen got together onSaturday to come up with ideas for a Valentine Stamping Event.  This is one of the projects that we came up with for that event.  I really enjoyed doing the collage for my Christmas gift exchange, and Susan and Karen really like it, so we decided to come up with one for Valentine's Day for our stamp camp.  So this is what the three of us came up with.  It took a while to make because we had so many ideas and we needed to to come up with 9 for the number of squares we had.  We also needed to decide on a color scheme.  Also we needed to split up the sentiments and Valentine shapes.

It was a long process to come up with the idea but once we finally decided the layout and everything, it did not take long to finish.  These are the supplies that we used for this project:


STAMP SETS:  The Best of 25 Years… Love, Perfect Pennants
PAPER:  Red Glimmer Paper, Silver Foil, Basic Black, Pink Pirouette, Whisper WHite, Real Red, Fresh Prints Designer Series Paper Stack
INK: Versamark, Black Stazon, Real Red, Old Olive
ACCESSORIES:  Circle Card Thinlets, Label Card Thinlets, Heart Punch, Small Heart Punch, Big Shot, Blender Pens, Black Embossing Powder, Jewel Rhinestones, Red Sharpie (non SU), Dimensionals, Basic Black and Real Red Markers

This will be one of the projects that we will be offering along with 4 more for a Valentine Stamp Class.  Although we came up with our ideas together, we will be offering our classes at different days and times.  I will post that information in a future post this week.  I am trying to finalize a date and time.  Today is an all 3 grandson day so it should be very busy today.  Enjoy the day!

Be My Valentine

Happy Valentine's Day! One last Valentine Card from me.  This card is a CASE from Jill Hilliard.  I thought it was really cute!  The supplies that I used for this card were:

STAMP SETS:  Delightful Dozen, Bright Blossoms
PAPER:  Whisper White, Real Red
INK:  Garden Green, Real Red
ACCESSORIES:  1/8" Real Red Taffeta Ribbon, 1" Circle Punch, 1-1/4" Circle Punch, Small Heart Punch, Adorning Accents Embossing Folder, Big Shot, Real Red Marker, Dimensionals

This post is very short today.  I am still battling whatever I have.  Hopefully I can kick it soon.  Enjoy your Valentine's Day!

You Are Loved

I love this stamp set.  I bought it last year but never got a chance to use it.  So this year I made a number of different cards using the set.  This is another card for the Valentine Buffet which I hosted last evening.  This card is so very simple but I like the simplicity of only 2 colors and a splash of glitz (the Red Glimmer Paper).  The supplies that I used for this project were:  

STAMP SET:  You Are Loved
PAPER:  Whisper White, Cherry Cobbler, Red Glimmer Paper
INK:  Versamark
ACCESSORIES:  Cherry Cobbler Embossing Powder, Heating Tool, Lacey Brocade Embossing Folder, 5/8" White Organza Ribbon, Dimensionals, Sticky Strip

I think the Lacey Brocade Embossing Folder and the White Organza Ribbon give it an elegant feeling. After I made this card, I thought about changing the embossing to a mixture Cherry Cobbler EP and Iridescent Ice.  I think that would make the heart a little more sparkly but it was too late to change it.  But maybe when I have some time, I will try it just to see how it would change the look of the card.  That is the beauty of stamping, you come up with one idea but there are thousands of ways to change it.  It is a way for you to stretch your creativity and make it your own.

Well I am getting ready for the snow they are calling for.  I really do not expect a lot but we just have to wait and see.  Another babysitting day for me but only 1 today and then when he leaves I need to make Valentine sacks for treats.  Will post again after the weekend.  I will be working on Bridal Shower invitations with a friend of mine.  They are for her future daughter-in-law. So the weekend will be a busy one.  Enjoy your weekend!

A Valentine Buffet Card

Here is another card that we made at our Valentine Buffet last night.  This card uses my favorite Red Glimmer Paper.  I think that paper just adds a little spice to your cards.  I also used the "New"

The supplies that I used for this card were:

STAMP SET: You are Loved
PAPER:  Whisper White, Red Glimmer Paper, Real Red Core'dination Paper
INK:  Pretty in Pink, Basic Black
ACCESSORIES:  Embossing Folder, Hearts Collection Framelits, Lacey Brocade Embossing Folder, Needlepoint Border Embossing Folder, Small Heart Punch, Sanding Block, Rhinestone Jewels

I saw this card and I truly can not remember where or I would post it.  I did do some changes to it. But I thought it would be perfect  for a Buffet.  It os simple but oh so elegant.  I love the Embossing folder with the little scallop it is perfect to add just a little texture to the card.  Adding the Lacey Brocade embossing folder to the largest heart is great way to give the card a bit more character.  I was very happy how this card turned out.  Today is a cooking day.  My husband is leaving for Maine to do some snowmobiling for a week, so I am making some meals for him to take along.  And tomorrow I am back to being Grandma babysitter.  Although tomorrow I will only have the youngest, the 4 month old.  All I can say is I am loving the second job.  My payment of baby hugs is the best paycheck I have ever received!  Enjoy the day!

A Whale and Two Bags

For our Valentine Stamp Camp last Saturday one of our projects was a bag.  The bag was a CASE of a project Brian Pilling demonstrated to us at Leadership.  We thought it was so cute that we needed to include it at our Stamp Camp.  This is the bag that we made.  The supplies that we used for this project were:

STAMP SET:  Oh, Whale
PAPER:  Pool Party, Whisper White
INK:  Basic Gray, Pool Party, Melon Mambo
ACCESSORIES:  Whale Clearlit, Small Heart Punch, Melon Mambo Organdy Ribbon, Large Scallop Edgelit,  Cloud Embossing Folder

Janet Wakeland made a cute Goldfish Treat Holder using MDS and made the Whale in a "goldfish" color.  I thought it such a neat idea to connect the whale with the goldfish.  So anyway...I used the bag idea that we made but used the goldfish idea.  I made a couple of these bags and filled them with Goldfish Cracker bags and Dove Valentine Hearts for Eli's Teachers at Daycare.  Here is a peek at the bag.

It is really the same bag only I changed the ribbon and the color of the whale.  I think it is cute.  And I am hoping they will enjoy their Valentine treat.  It is so easy to take one idea and using the same basic concept, you can change it a bit to fit your needs.

Well I am off and running again today.  No grandchildren today but I need to get everything set up for my Valentine Card Buffet this evening.  Enjoy your day!

Eli's Valentines- Part 2

I know, I know... I am such a picky Grandmother.  I can't be satisfied with making 1 design for Eli's Class Valentine's but I had to make 2!  The stamp sets were jus so cute this year and I thought the girls would love to get a cute little whale for Valentine's day.  Just remember these are 2 year olds who really do not care what is on their card.  But I just felt the boys would appreciate the elephant and the girls would like a pink whale.  That thought helps to justify me making 2 different cards.   So her you see what I made for the girls.  The supplies that I used for this card were:

STAMP SET:  Oh, Whale, Be of Good Cheer, Teeny Tiny Wishes
PAPER:  Pretty in Pink, Pool Party, Whisper White
INK:  Real Red, Pool Party, Pretty in Pink
ACCESSORIES:  Dimensionals, Hearts Framelits

This is a card that does not open up.  I felt 2 year olds needed something very simple.  I am showing you the front and the back of the card.  I hope the kids like them.  I know Eli does.

Sorry I was late posting today but my Grandson that I babysit on Mondays was not feeling well and he needed a little extra love from Grandma today.  I am  sure you can understand.  Enjoy the day!

Eli's Valentines

Where Eli attends daycare, every Valentine's Day they have the kids exchange valentines.  Of course being Grandma and a crafty person, I feel that I should make them for him to give to his classmates.  They are supposed to be simple.  So I decided to use the Hearts Collection Framelits to make the base of the card.  When Eli saw this elephant, he got so excited so I knew that I just had to use that for his cards.  So this is what I came up with.  Very simple but oh does Eli like this card!  The supplies that I used for this card were:

STAMP SET:  Henry Says
PAPER:  Real Red, Whisper White, Basic Gray DSP, Red Glimmer Paper
INK:  Real Red, Basic Black 
ACCESSORIES:  Hearts Collection Framelits, Big Shot, Small Heart Punch

I will say that the small Red Glimmer Paper heart was not in my original design.  But I  made a smudge there.  So I punched out the small and placed it there.  It looked good there so I decided to keep it there.  That little bit of glitz finished the card off.  Sometimes accidents are good things.  The card is so simple there is not much else that I can say.  But one thing I know is that Eli is happy Grandma made his valentine's this year!  Enjoy your day!

Valentine Card Buffet

I am hosting my Annual Valentine Card Buffet on February 6 at my place.  The way I host my Card Buffets is that I offer 4-5 different card designs.  Fro those designs, you get to choose any design or designs that you wish.  And from that you get to choose how many cards you would like to make from each design.  So you can make as many cards as you would like. I charge for each card you make.  This is one of the cards that you can choose from.  I try to make a variety of styles for my customers to choose from.  For this card I wanted to design a really vintage romantic type of card.  I am not sure if I succeeded but here is the card.  the supplies that I used for this card were:

STAMP SETS:  You Are Loved, Teeny Tiny Wishes
PAPER:  Melon Mambo, Whisper White
INK: Versamark, Melon Mambo
ACCESSORIES:  Melon Mambo Embossing Powder, Lacey Brocade Embossing Folder, Hearts Collection Framelits, Big Shot, Word Window Punch, 3/8" Melon Mambo Striped Organdy Ribbon,  Tea Lace Paper Doilies, 5/8" Flower Trim, Pearl Jewels, Sponge Dauber, Glue Dots

This card looks so much better in person.  If you would like more information about this Valentine Card Buffet, please click here to contact me.  Today I have no babies to baby sit but I am taking this "free" time to prepare for the Valentine Stamp Camp on Saturday.  Enjoy your day!
