Sending Valentine Hugs


 This card was actually the inspiration for my Love Shack card. While that one is fun, this one is friendly!

For this card I used Lawn Fawn's Build A Cabin cut from Pink Pastel Shimmer cardstock. All the house trim is cut from Red Holiday Sparkle cardstock. I used Finley's ABC's for the lettering.

I wanted the door to be a different color, so I cut the door out of Pixie Sparkle cardstock and then used the heart die from the Build A Cabin to cut out the door below the window. The extra hearts are from the Heart Garden Border die. I filled in the windows and door opening with some scrap Pearlescent Vellum.

I also though that the "logs" on the cabin needed some definition, so I used a copic R32 and drew along the lines to accomplish it. I also used the marker to color in the bricks on the chimney.

For the background, I hot foiled the new Woodgrain Background Hot Foil Plate with Crimson Stars Glimmer Hot Foil. This is the second card I have used my Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil System and I really like this technique and look forward to other plates and doing it more often.

For the sentiments on the outside of the card, I used Long Distance Hugs and Simply Winter Sentiments. For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from Simply Celebrate Hearts.


  Thanks for stopping by and Happy Valentine's Day!
