Just Us Girls #329, CASology #189, The Card Concept #48, AAA #57 and Fusion

When an event like Valentine's Day comes along, you can find a number of challenges that have the same theme - like hearts.  I have a card for Just Us Girls, CASology, The Card Concept, AAA and Fusion.
When I started making my valentines I forgot all about this lacy heart die from Serendipity.  I cut it out last year in white and red glitter paper which was in the case with the die.  I finished poking out all the little pieces, glued the two hearts together and then onto a popped up square.  The sentiment from PB is stamped in Pure Poppy and sparkle embossed.  Here's a closer look at this sparkly heart.
Even a photo editing program wouldn't make this whiter but at least you can see how glittery it is.

I made 14 valentines for the homebound members of our church and needed something quick and easy to reproduce.  In a couple of the galleries you will see a card made by Jen of Jenerally Speaking that I CASEd. Thanks for the inspiration, Jen.  Here's a picture of three of them.  As you can see, I varied the paper so as not to get bored.  ;)
Now that all of these cards are in the mail, maybe I can get back to making other cards.
So glad you dropped by.
