Be Mine Valentine Chick

This is a Valentine card I created using the chocolate heart candy as a balloon for the chick.  It is Melon Mambo, Basic Black and Whisper White cardstocks made with Bloomin' Love and Honeycomb Happiness stamp sets.

• The base of my card is Melon Mambo cardstock cut at 4-1/4" x 11" and scored at 5-1/2" in the middle.
• The second layer is Basic Black cardstock cut at 4" x 5-1/4" and adhered to the front of the card.
• The third layer is Whisper White cut at 3-3/4" x 5" and I stamped the little chick from Honeycomb Happiness at the bottom.  I used the string stamp from Balloon Celebration
• Then I stamped the chick again on Melon Mambo and cut him out with the Paper Snips and adhered him with Dimensionals.
• I stamped "Be Mine" from Bloomin' Love with Melon Mambo ink.  
• I attached the chocolate heart candy with a Glue Dot.

Bloomin' Love

I started stamping this morning and created this card using my favorite colors from Stampin' Up! which is Bermuda Bay and Island Indigo.  I made it with the new set called Bloomin' Love  in the 2016 Occasions Catalog,  It comes in Photopolymer with 16 stamps.  First, I stamped the heart with Bermuda Bay ink on Shimmery White Paper and then sprinkled Clear Embossing Powder over it,  then heat set it with the Heat Tool.  I stamped "Be Mine" in Island Indigo and did the same.

I layered it on Island Indigo.  The second layer is Bermuda Bay which I inserted into the Softly Falling Embossing Folder through the Big Shot.   I attached the new 3/8" Pool Party Glitter Ribbon which is just beautiful. The base of the card is Island Indigo.

Bloomin' Love Dazzled

This card is even more beautiful in person!  I was inspired by a video by Kay Kalthoff. This card uses the new Bloomin' Love set in the Occasions catalog on page 17, but be sure to get the bundle with the stamp set and the dies and save 15%.   The base of my card is Basic Black.  The second layer is Shimmery White.  The background of the heart is Red Foil Paper.  The Bloomin' Heart die was cut from Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper and attached with Glue Dots.  "Be Mine" was stamped with Real Red ink onto the Black banner.  Since I didn't have the bundle from the Number of Years Framelit Dies which has die for the banner, I used Paper Snips to cut it out, but I will be buying that bundle in the near future.
