Valentine's Day Goodies

I found these Sweettarts candy hearts and I knew that the Stampin' Up! 1"X 8" cello bags would be perfect for these treats.  I was able to get twelve hearts into each bag and it still left me with enough room at the top to tie a pretty bow.

 

For the tag, I used the new framelits-labels dies from the Occasions mini album.  I love these.  They are so fun to use!  I cut the label out with Whisper White card stock.  I then used the large heart punch and punched a heart out of Pretty in Pink card stock.  I stamped the "Happy Valentine's Day" sentiment from the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set in Real Red ink.  I used my two favorite punches to layer together.  I punched the sentiment out with the Word Window punch and then layered it onto the Modern Label punch. 

I used my Crop-a-Dile to punch two holes towards the top of the label and used some Real Red grosgrain ribbon to tie it all together.  I bought two rolls of this ribbon off the Clearance Rack a couple of weeks ago during the Clearance Rack Blitz promotion.  Check the rack often for new deals.  Click HERE to visit the clearance rack!

Valentine's Day Cards

I love this girl stamp.  She is from the Greeting Card Kids set.  I colored her on one image with water color crayons and the other with water color pencils.

In the card above I used the water color crayons.  I used water color paper and it makes all the difference when trying to get nice, vibrant colored images.

 On this card I used the water color pencils.  It's not as vibrant as the crayons, but the color moves a bit better.  I did use the aqua painter with both images and I usually like to use blender pens with the water color crayons.

The base layers are the same for both cards and I used lots of goodies from the Occasions mini.  I used Whisper White and embossed the bottom of the panel with the adorning accents heart folder.  I used the labels framelits dies to matte the focal image. I did 3 score lines above the hearts for a little more interest.
