Yes, Flopsey’s heart actually does hop…or flip-flop… to reveal a message inside. I had the whole card made, then got this idea to have his heart flip up for another message.

It has been a year. 365 days have come and gone with a trail of tears left behind. It has not been effortless or uncomplicated. I’ve held on with all of my strength and I have been incapable of holding back the tears of what was. Many tears have dropped as the memories passed. Alas, new memories have been acquired. I have made it through Valentine’s Day, Cubs opening day at Wrigley, Easter both Greek and Christian, a season of my youngest brother’s little league baseball games, his birthdaA FEW NEW THINGS FROM OUR CRAFT LOUNGE

What a fun challenge this was...it was nice to think outside the box and make a non-standard size card. When I say think outside the box, in my case this card is rather big - 7" x 5", but love how this week's SCS sketch is perfect for it! I was highly inspired to make this card shabby not just because of the images from the Be My Valentine set, but also because of the new Core'dinations The Chocolate Box card stock. Let me just tell you how absolutely yummy this card stock is to work with. IYou're My MVP!
A different kind of Valentine. This is for today's Ways To Use it challenge on SCS. The challenge was to use stars. Simple enough right! So that is exactly how I kept it--SIMPLE!Stamps: Sporting Paper: Real Red, Rose Red, Whisper White, scraps of dp Ink: Real Red, Rose Red Accessories: top note, slice, sizzix, rubons, Martha Stewart markers, white gel pen Mary JoSome Simple Thank Yous
This is pretty straight forward. Make a white card base (4.25 X 5.5 folded). Punch black CS with the 1 1/4 square punch (this punch is retiring buy it HERE). The hearts are from the new punch in the Love You Much Bundle (HERE). Punch 2 of them with red CS and one with white. Cover the white one with Chunky Glitter, and adhere them to the squares. Cut off the excess hearts, where it goes out of the square, except on the glitter one. Adhere them to the card and stamp the sentiment. ThisViva La Verve - Week 1 Sketch
You all know how I love my sketch challenges! This one is from Verve. You can read all about it here in the SCS forum, but basically it was to use the sketch and also some kind of hardware on your card. There will be a new "sketch with a twist" every Friday in January. Fun! So, the day I saw this challenge (last Saturday), I had been to the LSS here in town to burn up the last of my store credit. One of the things that I bought was this Basic Grey butterfly paper from the Urban Prairie linLove You Much

I have a cute little box for you today:) I needed a valentine goody of some sort for club and thought a box made from the heart Nestabilities would be cute. I first tried doing it all as one piece for the base, but I needed a more substantial bottom to get it to sit up straight, so I ended up with a box bottom and then adhered my hearts tScrapScene Valentine Project Submissions
