Valentine Hugs Cards

I love the Hero Arts Hot Foil plate used on these cards and could endlessly apply foil hearts to countless pieces of card stocks.  The little foiled hearts make even plain card stock look instantly cute.  It was super easy to die cut the 'hugs' script (Lawn Fawn) from gold foil and glue it to the red card stock decorated with the tiny foil hearts. I used a piece of Doodlebug printed card stock (old stock) for the card blank. The hugging bunnies (Whimsy Stamps)  were stamped on white card stock, colored and fussy cut out by hand before the image was attached to the card with adhesive foam dots. The printed card stock card blank really adds to the fun of this special Valentine card.
This second 'hugs' Valentine card is different from the first one because I foiled the hearts over a card stock with tiny printed hearts.  Just like the first card, the words (Lawn Fawn) were die cut from gold foil card stock (DCWV) before gluing them down to the card blank.  (The word 'sending' was cut off from the top of the 'BIG'.)  The bear and rabbit hugging image (Whimsy Stamps) were stamped on white card stock and fussy cut by hand before coloring and adhering them to the card with adhesive foam dots.  Even though this card is less colorful than the first one, it still conveys a very sweet message.   
I hope that you've made or are making Valentine cards for all your sweethearts, big and small.  Let's spread  LOVE around the world! Send a Valentine card to someone you care about....brighten the universe!

  1. Ooooh! You're right about that Hero Arts Hearts Foil Plate . . . it does add a very special shimmery touch to all paper. Definitely adding that to my wish list! The valentines you created using the foiled paper really turned out looking extra special!
