Bee My Valentine

Last Thursday I shared with you a wonderful thank you card using the Bee My Valentine stamp set (162457). Today I thought I’d share some cards that use some untraditional colors to send a love message.

Our first card today is a monochromatic one done in the color, Darling Ducking which is one of our 2025-2027 In Colors and uses a fun fold.

It uses simple stamping and a couple of score lines 2 3/4″ from each end to create a lovely card making it perfect for someone just starting out building their supplies.

This next card also uses the set but takes it a different direction

with a fun easel card. Done in Crushed Curry, Crumb Cake and Early Espresso.

The background for this easel card has been stepped up with the Soft Waves 3D Embossing Folder (164695) and some fussy cutting. Once again the lovely 2025-2027 In Color Flat Pearls (165192) have been used to add a bit of shine.

And finally this lovely Floating Vertical Bandstand Pop Up Card done in Lemon Lolly and Poppy Parade.

This card folds down flat for mailing. And isn’t the little thought bubble cute? It is actually the same punch being used for the body of the bee. The Lemon Lolly panels have been dry embossed with the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder (161600) to add some texture and the Drusty Embellishments (164223) not only add shine but some wonderful texture too.

So what do you think? Like traditional colors and the non traditional colors used here? Don’t you like how color can change the whole feel of a card and make something feel so different.
