Another Valentine card to share today. I decided I'm not making that many different kinds this year - I think I'm still recovering from all the Christmas holiday items I made! I wanted to make a card with an envelope on it and found some vellum with little hearts on it in my stash.
I really like how this turned out. I used pink cardstock for the card base and added a layer of pink/white pattern paper. I adhered the doily and placed a circle of pattern paper on top of it. I had to do this because the vellum envelope didn't work well against the white doily.
I die-cut the envelope with a Sizzix die, added the two hearts stamped with sentiments and placed them on top with foam tape for dimension. I die-cut the XO border at the bottom in a lighter pink cardstock. It looked like it was still missing something, so I tied Charcoal twine around the envelope which helped bring out the black on the sentiments. I love pink and black together!
