Using My Stash to Create a Fast Card

 

I had lots of extra candies left over from creating my Valentine's Day Cards with Tim Holtz True Love.  I decided to use my basic stash and create some cards that can be used for Birthdays and Thank you Cards.  It is another way to stretch my stash!  I am always looking for ways to get the most of of my supplies.  How about you?  I hope this provides some inspiration.  Thanks for stopping by!

Valentine Cards 2025

 

 

I had a grand time putting together Tim Holtz True Love die set.  It was fun to make my own candies and use those traditional colors of Valentines (pink, red and white).  I added a little gold too.  I used glossy accents to give the candy a realistic look.  Plus, I add some sprinkles, hearts and XO embellishments that I normally use for shakers.  The background is embossed.  I flipped the embossing so it was subtle.  I also added a little Washi tape that is peaking out from behind.  The inside says "Your the Sweetest, Happy Heart Day!"  I made 11 of these cards to spread joy for Valentine's Day.   These cards are 5x7 because  I wanted more real estate to show on the card.  I am also excited because I made more candies to use on upcoming Birthday cards!  Who does not smile when they receive chocolate?  I love chocolate and receiving it as a gift makes me smile! I consider Chocolate a food category (LOL)! Thanks for stopping by, and have a fantastic Heart Day!

Creating Mini Valentines for School

 

I loved making these fintastic school Valentine's Day cards for one of the teachers in my life.  She can pass out these cards and spread joy to the kids.  I used Lawn Fawn Fintastic Friends stamp set, but these can be created with any stamp set.  They are fun, quick and easy to make.  Check out my video below on how to mass produce them.  Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a Fintastic Day!
