I'm back with some new cards thanks to my downline swap! These are both great cards for the next big card-giving event: Valentine's Day.

This first card was stamped by Anne. Isn't it elegant? She used the Polka Dot background stamp and the Always stamp set. The colours are perfect for this card - Kraft, Whisper White and Riding Hood Red. I love how Anne embossed then cut out the two hearts, cutting the dotted outline off of one heart which gives such a different look.

This card is from Alicia. I just adore this little mouse holding the big heart. These stamps are from the Happy Heart Day stamp set. You actually lose some of the effect of this card in the scan because of its lighter colours, but it looks so nice in person. The main card is on Very Vanilla and Alicia has also used Chocolate Chip, Riding Hood Red and Pink Pirouette card stock. The Designer Series Paper is from the Pink Pirouette Prints package. Such a fun card that could be used for Valentine's Day or as a really nice thank you.

Happy stampin'!

Bev.
