Valentine's Ideas for You

I am lovin' this P.S. I Love You set. It has so many wonderful stamps that can be used for a variety of cards and gifts for your special someone for Valentine's Day. The strawberry card was inked with markers and the bottom has Crystal Effects to appear like the Chocolate is Yummy and shiny. The strawberry's top has RED Dazzling Details which is NEW and so cute on the strawberries.

This cute little Triangle Box is a pattern  that is so easy to create.
1. Cut cardstock to 4 1/4" x 11". Then trim to 4 1/4" x 9". Keep the other piece for the small card. Score at 4 1/4" and fold in half.
2. Open back up flat.  Find the midpoint of the 4 1/4" which is 2 1/8" and make a small mark on each end.
3. Using my Simply Scoring  board. I scored a line from the 2 1/8" to the middle scored line on the end of the line. If the cardstock is vertical, it looks like a line from the midpoint to the right edge at the center fold. Do the same on the other side from midpoint to side. Turn around and do the same on the other end. Score well and fold. Punch a 1/8" or 1/4" circle punch on the ends that fold on both sides. Then thread a ribbon through the holes.  Decorate as you desire.

The last idea uses the background stamp called Tool Shed. I LOVE this stamp because it is awesome for a do-it-yourselfer who loves tools. I used the new Heart Framelits to cute the hearts.
