Whoo’s Your Valentine stamp set + Dakota paper pack = Masculine Cards!

I’m excited to share with you my creations using the Whoo’s Your Valentine stamp set!!! 

The challenge to myself, was to CREATE something that was NOT related to Valentine’s Day, but USING this Valentine stamp set! J

Take a look…

I LOVE the stamp set that comes along with this promotional kit and KNEW I could use this stamp set in a different way! 

Here is a picture of the stamp set…

(this stamp set retails at $17.95!!!!)

Here is a picture of EVERYTHING that is included in the Whoo’s Your Valentine promotional kit~

there’s ONLY 18% left in stock!!

This kit includes…

12 — Die-Cut Boxes(3eachof4colors:Blush,Hollyhock,Ruby,White Daisy) 
3 — 12" x 12" Cardstock Sheets (Blush, Hollyhock, White Daisy) 
1 — Sheet Silver Glitter Paper—new product for Spring/Summer 2013! 
12 — Treat Tubes with Lids—new product for Spring/Summer 2013! 
1—My Acrylix® Whooo’s Your Valentine Stamp Set (D-size) 


Did you see those WONDERFUL treat tubes that are included???  

How many different ways can you use these tubes?  In the new Idea Book, they will be retailing at $5.95 per 6 pack!  (sorry...the picture will NOT turn for me! LOL! ) 

Here is the 1st card created with this stamp set…
...take a closer look and you will notice that there is a “sneak peek” of 3 new products on this card!!! J

Products used for 1st card…

• Artiste Cricut cartridge
• Burlap Ribbon
• Dakota Paper pack
• Whoo’s Your Valentine stamp set
• NEW~12x12 glitter paper
• NEW~black shimmer ribbon
• NEW~B1419 Joyful Birthday
• Inks – Pacifica, Whisper & Barn Red

In case you’d like to create a similar card…

• I used the tag on page 32 of Artiste booklet to create circle.  Barn Red circle was cut at 3”, black glitter paper-2.6”, colonial white circle- 2 1/4” (key i)
• Notice the Pacifica blue border?  I used the medium heart stamp…and stamped the heart upside down! J
• The branch comes from the stamp set in the Pear & Partridge card making WOTG kit.
• I used black texture tool to create “texture” on colonial white areas of card.

Here is a close up of the 2nd card…

Products used…

• Dakota Paper pack
• Whoo’s Your Valentine stamp set
• Color-ready Seam Binding Ribbon
• Sponge Dauber
• Inks- Pacifica, Black, Whisper, Barn Red
• 
  

Some details about the 2nd card…

• Did you notice the zig-zag border?  You can use PART of a stamp set, and create a LINE rather than a BACKGROUND!!!
• Color-Ready Seam Binding Ribbon is GREAT!!!  I used a sponge dauber and colored my ribbon, Barn Red!!!

One paper pack I will miss – is our La Belle Vie paper pack! 

This was the paper pack I was assigned to use for my classes I taught at Convention this past year…so it is a true friend! 

This is a PERFECT kit for weddings, heritage, family, romance, etc!  I believe the reason I LOVE this paper pack so much is the colors in this paper pack.  I am a neutral tone gal, and then add in the smokey plum color – ahh, pure delight! J

Here are a few items I created with this paper pack…

I will treasure this scrapbook layout, as it has 4 generations of wedding photos! 

Each photo is attached to a flap that lifts, where the story of my parents, grandparents and great-grandparents story is written!  PRESERVE those memories, and the lives of our family’s!! 

I LOVE the embellishments on this next layout…eclectic alphabet (retiring) black flourish sparkles, and black tulle!

I believe I shared this item before, but here is one picture of the 6x6 mini album I created with this paper pack…CLICK HERE to an earlier post, to see the entire album!





I also created many cards using the La Belle Vie paper pack…
Products Used: Jardin stamp set, Black Striped ribbon, Clear sparkles, Black embossing powder, Artiste Cricut Collection

Valentine’s Day card with Whoo’s Your Valentine kit…

I have another card to share from the ADORABLE stamp set included in the “Whoo’s Your Valentine?” promotional kit!! 

Take a look at the stamp set…

Do you SEE the POSSIBILITIES? Love – LOVE!!! J

I believe this card is my favorite one out of the four different ones I made…

By adding some Whisper Cardstock to the cardstock that is already apart of this kit, it brought a nice, soft tone to this card design.

I used the Cricut Artiste Collection to cut out the heart bracket shape at the bottom to heat emboss “Happy Valentine’s Day”.  I also sponged the edges in Hollyhock ink to make it “stand out” a bit more. 

I used the “famous” silver shimmer trim…our self-adhesive ribbon that I use VERY often! LOL!!!

Tracing the top heart with Silver Glitz Glitter Gel, finished off the card. J
