Welcome to the Valentine's Holiday Hop! If you've arrived from Margaret Moody's blog Margaret Moody, I'm stop number 4 on the hop! I'm glad you could make it. Hop along with me and my fellow Holiday Hoppers and we'll direct you through the entire hop of wonderful papercrafted creations! Should you become lost along the way, see the lineup below.
Start with 12x2 card stock. Cut it half so you have (2) 12x6 pieces. Then, cut each half into (4) 3x6 pieces. Score each piece at 3" and fold in half. You'll get 8 cards from one piece of card stock. I cut cards from several different colors of card stock, and will be making a bunch more Valentine's with the remaining paper.
I used a number of punches to create different shapes for the Whimsical Words sentiments. (stamp the sentiment first, then use the punch to cut it out.) A little bit of layering, some ribbon and some brads, and you have these adorable Valentine's cards. There are unlimited creative possibilities. Won't you be my Valentine? :)
