This die set even has a part to cut a little scalloped edge card and script letters spelling 'for you'. I cut the frog and heart from the DP paper that I used to make the envelope.
I also had a small LF heart shaped shaker die that I wanted to test out. I cut two extra heart-shaped rings to thicken the walls that would hold the mini hearts (cut using the die) and Martha Stewart heart sequins. A piece of acetate was used under the top heart ring to form the window. I think this mini shaker heart would be useful for jazzing up a small gift even if it's not Valentine's Day. The little envelope and card can also be used all year round as a gift enclosure instead of or with a full size card. Okay, I'll make a few Valentine-ish projects before I put my boxes away and start on Easter...promise!
Aww... your "for next year" Valentines projects are adorable! The heart closure envie is really cute, is it large enough to be a gift card holder? Little shaker charm is super cute too!
ReplyDeleteOh my. This is soooooo cute! I love that you go all out with your cards! I just tend to throw a bunch of random leftover stuff on mine. LOL
