I made this for a friend's birthday. This card was so blinged out by the time I finished it. It sparkled all over! I tried to capture that in the last photo.
I started with a pink patterned Anna Griffin card base, topped it with a green die cut and embossed tassel frame. Beneath the frame I added a printed die cut rose trellis pattern. I topped the frame with a sweet pink birthday cake printed die cut, printed die cut cupcake and flower images. Then two cupcake 3D stickers (Jolee's) and a printed sentiment. I added pearls, resin roses, and a LOT of glitter glue - to the cake, cupcake, flowers, tassel frame.

Final Valentine's
These are the last of the Valentine Cards I made. More using Anna Griffin items, and at the end are Fuse shaker cards. Those are made with the Fuse tool and special coated papers that react to the heat tool to literally fuse them together. It almost looks like stitching, but it's the melted coated paper. Hope everyone had a wonderful Valentine's Day. Have a happy heart every day!

Send My Love...
So, this sentiment "Sending my Love" automatically starts playing Adele's "Send My Love (to Your New Lover)" song on repeat in my head. Which is not a bad thing.
I really like this card and I'm pretty sure it is the 3D flowers that enthrall me. I die cut the fancy background from pink cardstock, added a collage card topper, the two pink camilla (?) flower stickers, heart with glitter, and gold arrow (not AG), and lovely pink satin bow. Finally embellished with a red rhinestone in each corner. Easy peasy mac and cheesy.

A Little Birdie Valentine
A little birdie told me it was almost Valentine's Day. Well you know what they say, birds of a feather flock together. As in this little card.
A couple tricks on this card too. Let's start with the blue embossed frame in the background. I fussy cut it after embossing. Then there's the heart outline die cut, like in previous posts. But here's a new one...I used the cover from an Anna Griffin cardstock paper pad to cut the birds. Ha! I die cut the heart with the bird centered and then fussy cut the other bird, which then I attached with foam dots. Some more glitter glue here and there, and it's done. The flowers and sentiment image is a collage card topper, which I cut in order to slide the large bird heart die cut beneath.

Love Youuuuu
Love You Valentine. Started with a pink patterned Anna Griffin card base, added gold flourishes, roses stickers, patterned heart, die cut heart, sentiment, and pink velvet bow. Ok so the trick here is that after I die cut a white heart, I used the negative space to create another image. It's not anything new here, you've probably all seen this done before. But it creates a new image and gives you more options with your metal dies. All you do is manually with scissors and very carefully (!) cut around the negative space left in the cardstock after you run it through your machine. I am totally crushing on this velvet ribbon. Nothing says Valentine like velvet. Am I right?!

Featured Feathers
I made a lot of Valentines this year, so bear with me. I was unusually inspired by the holiday. This card is of course, mostly Anna Griffin. The tan card base is highlighted with a white heart die cut, gold foil leaves, red foil heart die cut, rose stickers, sentiment tag, patterned ribbon, and red feathers. Yes, feathers! I saved that for last, because...FEATHERS! lol
