7 Days of Valentine Projects - Day 3


Welcome to Day 3 of The 7 Days of Valentine Projects Blog Event. Several crafty bloggers and I are posting Valentine projects every day for 7 days - just for fun.  We’re posting projects we made using products we like and hope they will give you some inspiration for your own Valentine craft projects. You will find links to all the other participating bloggers below. Hopefully you can find time to look at their blogs and leave comments on any that inspire you. Happy Valentine Crafting and be sure to check back tomorrow for more Valentine inspiration!

 Today I'm sharing a set of Valentine Cards I made using Tim Holtz Blueprints stamps. I really love all his Blueprint stamps and I have more on order!!! They're just really graphic and fun to color - a little or a lot. I minimally colored these with Tim Holtz Distress Markers in Barn Door and Spun Sugar. For contrast and interest I matted them with some shiny, corrugated red glitter paper by Recollections. I stamped the images on Crumb Cake paper by Stampin' Up with Black Archival Ink. These were really, fun, easy and quick to make and I love how they turned out! 

 Thanks for stopping by and be sure to check back tomorrow for more Valentine Inspiration!!
