This month we are to create a Valentine's Day card. Easy enough...BUT...a handwritten sentiment is required on the front AND the inside. UGH!! I never like my handwriting. So here's my card:
After THREE attempts at writing neatly and trying to include a cute sentiment, I took the easy way out and just wrote *Love*. One word was about all I could handle by the end:) Seriously though, it was fun to give this a try. Don't think I'll do it again anytime soon.
Card Details:
- Stamped polka dots on vellum in Berry Sorbet (attached to base with scor-tape -- not visible at all)
- Used Mat Stack 4 die cut for sentiment panel
- Hearts are cut out and popped up for dimension
- Decorated edges of die cut with silver paint pen
Here's the inside:
All supplies Papertrey Ink unless noted
Stamps: Polka Dot Basics II, Blooming Button Bits, heart from Inque Boutique
Paper: white, vellum
Ink: Berry Sorbet, Ripe Avocado, Pure Poppy
Accessories: Copic markers: R32, R35, silver paint pen (marvy),Mat Stack 4 die, black Zig pen

Sara your handwriting is gorgeous!
I thought the front was a stamp!
So we now add handwriting to your talents as well because the card is gorgeous!
Beautiful card. So simple, but striking.
Super cute Valentine card Sara! Your handwriting is beautiful and it fits the image perfectly! Hugs ~S~
This is really pretty, and you have very nice handwriting!
Love this card. I must admit, berry sorbet is growing on me! And you handwriting is beautiful and elegant!
Sara, we're always our worst critics! I love this card and you do have lovely handwriting. Thanks for playing along! :)
I love the little heart flowers- this is so sweet!
This turned out great! Your handwriting is beautiful!
Looks like three times is a charm in your case. Lovely card. Worth all the effort. I adore the loveheart flowers too.
I love it! It's funny how we don't like our own handwriting. I look back and realize my mom definitely hated her writing. Now that she's gone, I cherish everything I have that she's written. Her writing brings back a lot of memories. Your writing is gorgeous, and it's you. It adds a great touch to the card.
Sara, this is perfect! I love the polka dots and all of the colors. Like you, I can't seem to find a sentiment stamp for everything. For some reason, I don't have anything (that I can find anyway) that just says Happy Valentine's Day. LOL!
Not only handwriting, but a hand drawn border for the mat stack! It looks GREAT, an that is a wonderful idea.
Well Sara, I love your handwriting and that doodling you did around the mat stack! How clever and makes for a beautiful card!!
LOVE LOVE LOVE ...... What a beautiful card you have created here young lady!!!

This is so sweet! I love those hearts! What a fun idea! And your handwriting is gorgeous!
