Non-traditional Valentine

Today I was inspired by some patterned cardstock that I came across in a grab bag. I thought this made a great non-traditional Valentine's Day card. Since I didn't put a sentiment on it, it could probably be used for an occasion other than Valentine's Day, too.


I embossed the patterned cardstock with the Cuttlebug D'vine Swirls embossing folder. The stamped images are by Autumn Leaves Rhonna Farrer.

This next card used the same technique of embossing patterned cardstock. I used the Cuttlebug Stylized Flowers folder on this one.


The stamped image is by See D's. The border punch is by Fiskars. I'd been thinking of spring today because it was so pretty outside. I love the spring colors of this card! Now I just have to face the reality that winter isn't finished with us yet. I can wish though! :-)
