Howdy Stampers!
Today I am posting my SUO Challenge #193: Hearts a Plenty
And, as you can see, there are plenty of hearts on this ensemble!!
I have created a Valentine card that can be used for any occasion really because it just says "Just for You" with no Valentine sentiment. I love that!
The Painted with Love Specialty Designer Series Paper makes it SO easy to create and coordinates very well with both the Sure Do Love You and the Heart Happiness stamp sets. Add a little sparkle and bling and you have yourself a masterpiece!
Below you can see all the materials I used. The little box was created to hold three truffles from a local shop. Hope it inspires you to create your own valentine gift box and card! CASE away if you'd like. I would be flattered!

Instructions:
- On the largest
piece of Whisper White cardstock, stamp two large hearts from Sure Do Love
you, one in Melon Mambo and one in Calypso Coral. Stamp the polka dot heart in Calypso
Coral. Die cut these hearts with the appropriate framelits. Stamp ‘Just
for You’ in Calypso Coral onto a scrap of Whisper White then trim to 2” x ½”
and banner one end with your Paper Snips.
- Dust an area of
your Whisper White paper with the Embossing Buddy. Stamp the banner ‘Sure
Do Love You’ with Versamark. Dust with gold embossing powder and heat set.
Die cut with appropriate thinlit. Add 3 or 4 dimensionals to this banner.
- Adhere
the short piece of DSP to 4” x 5” Whisper White as shown on the card
front. Layer onto a Smoky Slate
mat. Die cut the small hearts (as
shown on the card) from the glimmer and foil scraps. Add all hearts,
except the large Calypso Coral, as shown on the card. Adhere the matted
card front to the card base.
- On
the second piece of 4” x 5” Whisper White, stamp the large heart frame
stamp from Sure Do Love You with Smoky Slate. Stamp the heart shaped sentiment inside this stamped
frame with Calypso Coral. Layer
this piece onto a Smoky Slate mat and adhere to the inside of the card.
- Construct
the Gable Box. Fit the long strip
of DSP around the box, creasing the corners. This will NOT meet
completely. Make sure the gap is
where you are going to attach the Calypso Coral heart and the banner. Adhere the strip of DSP with multipurpose
glue or your choice of adhesive. Adhere the heart over the gap in the DSP
using multipurpose glue. Add the banner with dimensionals.
- Tie
a 7 ½” length of Calypso Coral Shimmer Ribbon and equal length of gold
sequin trim to the handle of the Gable box.
