Valentine's Day Card 2012 - Final Instalment




Here is the last of my Valentine's Day cards.

I have been working on my workshops for my store. I was pulling papers from the store for my July calendar page workshop and I needed one more sheet of one of the papers. So, I thought that maybe I had kept some of this paper for myself.

I headed down to my disaster of a scrap room and couldn't find any papers from this particular line, but I was fed up. So, I began the 3 day long paper organizing project. My scrap room had turned into a disaster due to my pregnancy. I had been so sick that I was unable to do much in my room, but get what had to be done. So, remnants from workshops and new stuff that I wanted for myself had just piled up everywhere in my room.

With that said, my papers have never been properly organized since I opened my store 8 years ago. Now I have organized my 12 cubes of individual sheets of papers into appropriate categories. I must really like BoBunny because I have a cube and a half filled with BoBunny papers. I also cleaned up my space and put everything away.....well for now. There is still some more organizing to do, but I do need to get my workshops designed.

So, why am I telling you all of this....well, during my clean up I found the papers that I used on my Valentine's Day cards in this post.

It's an old Heidi Grace paper line and I was able to make 31 cards with what I had and I still have two sheets of papers left. The cardstock is Bazzill Passionate (appropriate for Valentine's Day) and Black Prismatic.

The brads are from my stash and I used one of EK Success' border punches to embellish the front of this card.

The front sentiment stamp is from CTMH's Thoughtful Tidings (February Stamp of the Month) stamp set and the inside sentiment is from Kraftin' Kimmie's Holiday Sentiments stamp set.

The die-cut that the front sentiment is on was cut out from CTMH's Cricut Cartridge - Art Philosophy. On the stamp set it says to cut the label out at 1 inch, but I cut it out at 1.25 inches because I used one of the decorative layers.
