A blog devoted to the cards I make in my tiny upstairs space. When my sister stays there, she calls it an "artist's garret". I'm not an artist, but am an enthusiastic cardmaker - hence the title "Cardmaker's Garret".

Valentines 2

More Valentines cards today!  My best friend always orders some from me.

First up for Double D's challenge "Hearts", Sweet Stampin' "Love", Stamping Sensations "Valentines", and My Time to Craft "Hearts". 

Double D has this lovely mood board.  I was inspired by the top right image of the swans making a heart with the spray of flowers above them.

 

I stamped and heat embossed the image in platinum embossing powder, watercoloured, trimmed with a square die, and bordered with pink shimmer cs.

The Tic Tac Toe challenge has lots of options for Valentine cards.  I went with the diagonal line that says love sentiment, red and CAS design.

I layered the white hearts die over red cs and stamped and heat embossed my sentiment in white.
