You'll Do Valentine

Oh hi there!  We are coming up on Valentine's Day, and I wanted to share a set of cards that I made with the Taylored Expressions Love from Max & Millie stamp set (retired).

I would like to preface my first card with a disclaimer that I have been married to my best friend for 20+ years and we share a snarky sense of humor. The 'I guess you'll do' sentiment ties in perfectly with the very unimpressed cat, colored with Copic markers.  I used the TE Easy Strips 1/4', and TE Easy Strips 1/4' Patterns to cut cardstock strips and TE Easy Strips Maps to guide the placement of the strips. The cardstock colors used are Dragon Fruit, Bubblegum, Sprinkles, Earl Gray, and Sugar Cube.

I also made Valentine's Day cards for a couple of friends that I made at Stamp Joy, Sara and Katryna.  These girls made my first in-person Stamp Joy so much fun, and I look forward to seeing them again later this year!

The cards are a little more traditional with a 'Happy Valentine's Day' sentiment and a sweet little mouse hanging onto heart balloons, again colored with Copic markers. The sentiment was made with the TE Mini Strips Valentine stamp set and cut with the TE Mini Strips Flags. The background panel is embossed with the TE Clouds embossing folder (retired).

These cards were inspired by the TE Maker Challenge for February, which is a color challenge to use Bubblegum and Dragon Fruit. I wish you all the happiest of Valentine's Days!

Have a good day.
