~Valentine Card

For a very dear friend.  More like a surrogate Mom.  I used a lot of stuff from my stash and even something that would have gone into the trash!  The silver heart layered underneath the felt heart is actually the inside cover from a can of mixed nuts!  Already embossed!  How cool is that!!!

I found the vintage valentine online and just thought it was adorable.  I don't know about you, but the store bought valentine's today are pretty strange.  Minions are cute, but as valentines??  lol
Anyway, I punched the silver heart and then cut a red felt heart a little smaller and hand stitched with white embroidery thread.  Underneath is a piece of red foil embossed with swiss dots.  The base paper comes from Crate Paper Love Notes.  I cut the card base at 6" from Creative Cards.
Thanks for stopping by!

  1. That is adorable! Love it! Lol @ the Minions comment. What about fighting turtle ninjas as Valentines? That is kind of strange. I like more traditional styles for Valentines.
