Even though it feels like I just got done making Christmas cards, I've already been working on Valentine's cards. Marcia Hill used the Christmas Critters stamp set for a Valentine card here and I thought it was so cute and tried it for myself.
I die-cut the mouse in white cardstock and stamped him in Soft Stone, Hawaiian Shores and Lovely Lady inks, adding the nose in black ink and the eye with a black marker. I die-cut the mouse 2 more times and stacked and glued them together.
On a white cardstock panel, I placed the mouse on the card and added the heart, die-cut in Lovely Lady cardstock and on foam tape for dimension. The XOXO border is die-cut in Hawaiian Shores cardstock.
"Hugs & Kisses" is stamped in black ink and "Sending" is stamped on a slight angle in Lovely Lady ink. The entire panel is adhered to a Lovely Lady cardstock card base with the pink showing on the left side. Fun card to make and I'm always happy when I can use a stamp set for more than one occasion!
