Valentine Team Stamp It blog Hop

Welcome to January team Stamp It Blog Hop. The theme for this hop is Valentine. The moment I think about Valentine/love/friendship type of project - Love Blossoms Suite is coming to my mind first. Such beautiful, elegant and feminine. I created a home decor piece - shadow box framed art. I had fun creating one for Christmas and it looked great. And it is time to re-purpose the frame, don't you think?
Here is closer look:

I wish the picture can do a justice. It is much more vibrant in person (well, probably because my photo skill below the average and have a lot of room for improvement).
I use the color combo in the suite ( Rose Red, Sahara Send and Blushing bride) and gold. Each square is 3x3, frame is 12x12. I also created simple matching card:
Hope you like my projects. Please let me know what you think, and what stamp set is your favorite for Valentine themed project.

January Paper Pumpkin Card

Happy Thursday, stamping friend!
January Paper Pumpkin projects are amazing! You can create banner, treat holders, another home decor. And color are so soft and beautiful! Well, I decided I want to create a card using big and bold heart die cut and other pieces of the kit. This week I had a Happy Crafting hour in my local wine shop and we made this simple Valentine card:

This card was my inspiration and gave my basic design for Paper Pumpkin card:

Heart die cuts are slightly bigger so I trimmed them to fit a card. Extra supplies i used - blushing bride card stock for card base, blushing bride glimmer paper and scrap of white for sentiment, 3 punches (did I tell you how much I love my punches, haha).

And treat holder is done according to instructions in the kit.
