I {Love} Love

We had a blast yesterday at my Very Valentine Class. Not only did we get to do a ton of stamping, we got to enjoy part of the Colts game as well. How exciting that they are heading to Miami for a second Super Bowl! And, it just so happens, that I will be in Florida that weekend with my 3 sisters. We won't be going to the Super Bowl, but hopefully I can talk them in to at least watching it.

Back to stamping stuff...
My class was designed with the intent of getting all of your Valentines done and ready to go well before Valentine's Day, and I think we did! I designed 4 cards, and everyone got to make 3 each of the 4 designs. Then we made 2 each of 2 little favors. After I did the 4 cards, I realized that I hadn't used the I {Love} Love Wheel that I had purchased purposely for this class, so I did a bonus card. I'm glad I did! I {Love} it!

This is Melon Mambo & Whisper White Cardstock. I used an Uninked Jumbo Cartridge & my Melon Mambo Re-Inker to create the cartridge in the color that I wanted. I wheeled a whole sheet of Whisper White using my Stampin' Around Wheel Guide to keep it nice and straight, and then cut it in quarters to use for the background. The hearts are all from the I {Heart} Hearts Set*. The polka dot outline heart is hand cut and adhered with Stampin' Dimensionals. The set of 3 hearts on top is actually one stamp that coordinates with the Heart to Heart Punch. Stamp once, Punch once & they're all done! The small Love heart coordinates with the new Small Heart Punch. I Love this punch, it's just so cute! You'll see we used it on almost every card!

*See how you can make a difference in the lives of those who continue to suffer from the effects of the devastating earthquakes that struck Haiti in January. Click on the picture on the sidebar for more information.

Thanks for stopping by. Have a great week!
