Valentine's Day Card Class Part 2

This card I made at 4am the day I was going to show the cards to everyone at church. It is a result of pure insomnia. :p This was however, the most difficult card I did for this class. Although it is still pretty simple to make. I used patterned cardstock and inked the edges. Then I used my Cricut (another tool I LOVE) to cut out two hearts and two circle tags. I inked the edges of the shapes. Ran ribbon through them and on the heart added a ribbon charm from Making Memories. The sentiment is a stamp. Then I attempted to stitch around the card, but it seems that sewing at 4 am is not my best work. ;) There was another card, but the pictures I took of it were terrible. Someday I will see if I can remember to scan it in. As always, thanks for looking!

Valentine's Card Class


In January I was asked to teach a Valentine's Day card class for my church. Most of the ladies I would be teaching had never made a card before, so I had to keep it pretty simple. I also wanted to have a couple different styles of cards, a little something for everyone.

So this one is a very masculine card. The brads are from Queen and Co. (I love their brads.) The cardstock is all from Bazzill. I embossed the gray cardstock with a cuttlebug embossing folder, then stitched it on to give the card a little color. The inside had another gray piece stitched on so you could write a note. It was very simple, but still looked very nice.






This card uses a white cardstock, with two different patterned papers layered and then a simple ribbon to separate the papers. I then used another patterened paper that was from the same family of papers and a piece of vellum to make the tag with a Making Memories Tag maker. The tag paper is also embossed with a cuttlebug embossing folder. This was a really quick card also.
