Wishing you all lots of LOVE on Valentine's Day!

I made this garland for a bathroom shelf. (Excuse the cheap plastic bin, it should have been removed for the photo!)

Retired DSP; Basic Black and Cherry Cobbler cardstocks;  Silver Glimmer paper; Hearts Collection Framelits.

For the vertical hanging heart strands I used various heart punches as well as the framelits and sandwiched the hearts with Cherry Cobbler Baker's twine.  Another view of the entire display below:

This Garland was made using retired DSP and Cherry Cobbler cardstock and Baker's twine.   I hung it on our bathroom mirror.

These two designs are made using the Love impressions DSP which is still avaiiable on our clearance rack.

Basic Gray and pink Pirouette cardstocks; Silver Glimmer paper (124005); Full Heart (119883) and Small Heart (117193) punches; Scallop Heart of Hearts (117332) and Fashionable Hearts (125596) Embosslits; Hearts a Flutter Framelits (130159).

Based on multiple versions from the Stampin' Up! website.  This card was made using the now popular "chalkboard" technique.

Lovely Letters Alphabet set (115030); Whisper White, Pretty in Pink and Basic Black cardstocks and inks; Hearts a Flutter framelits (130159); Framed Tulips TIEF (121809); Silver and Red Glimmer papers; White Bakers Twine; White Embossing Powder;  White watercolor pencil.

Can't recall where I got this idea but isn't it cute?  A Hershey's Kiss shaped treatholder that holds what do you think-Hershey's Kisses of course!

The sides are made using the 2nd largest heart from the Hearts Collection Framelits (125599) which is scored at 7/8" from the top edge. 4 Kisses fit inside.

Three more design choices for this week's Valentine's treatholder classes using the Sweet Shop DSP that is still available on our clearance rack.

Wisteria Wonder, Pool Party and Lucky Limeade cardstocks and inkpads; Scallop Envelope (113462) and Two Tags (115194) dies; Scallop Circle punches.

One of the design choices for my Valentine treatholder classes this week.

Retired DSP; Basic Gray cardstock; 2-1/2" Circle, Small Scallop Circle, 1" Circle, 3/4" Circle and Small Heart and Scallop Oval punches.

The cardstock is 3-1/2" x 8-1/2" folded in half and then scored at 3/8' from each side.

I made this banner design for an upcoming class.  

More Amore DSP (129309); Red Glimmer paper; Pool Party and Real Red Cardstock;  Pool Party Seam Binding (125582); 5/8" Crochet Trim (118481); Full Heart punch (119883); Small Heart punch (117193);  Retired Red Satin ribbon; Free Pool Party buttons from SAB; Typeset Alphabet Bigz die (127553).

I used one sheet of 3-1/4" x 10" cardstock and one sheet of 3-1/4" x 11" cardstock each scored at 2" intervals and then glued together in the middle (at the 1" tab). Cut 10 pieces of DSP that are 1-3/4" x 3" tall.

An almost exact CASE of a card by the fabulous Mary Fish.

Lucky Limeade, Calypso Coral and Pool Party cardstocks; Fresh Elegance DSP and matching ribbon and brad (from the upcoming SAB catalog); Hearts Collection Framelits and Adorning Accents Edgelit (from new in the Occastions mini); Perfect Polka Dots and Square Lattice TIEFs.

This was one of the cards from my recent Big Shot Club class.
