Happy Valentine’s Day!

Posted on February 10, 2015 by Michele Kovack

Michele here with a Valentine’s Day card! I’ve noticed that I have been on a pink/coral/gold kick these days! So please forgive me if I am being somewhat repetitive. I used some of my favorite Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L products to create my glittery dimensional card.

I have a step by step photo tutorial to share my ~~chaotic~~ creative process! 😉

I’ve been asked many times if I have a plan when I am starting a card. Nope, not really. Though I do try and pick papers first to inspire me. From there the project takes on a life of its own. For today’s card I used some older papers in my stash. (I’ve got lots and lots of old paper!)

Does this die cut also look familiar? I can’t seem to get away from some of my favorites. They just seem to suck me in!

I love these 3D Foam Frames. Such an easy way to add dimension to a card without a crazy amount of bulk!

The frames are double sided so I peeled one side off and stuck it directly to my pink background paper.

I peeled the other side off and dumped my gold glitter over it.

I had several different circles from the die cut above and knew I wanted to place many of them back into the die cut. But first I added 3D Foam Hearts to random circles.

And of course, add more glitter!

I placed the circles on my paper and decided that I wanted a second frame.

I added the second 3D Foam Frame and cut off any excess circles.

Once again, I dumped more glitter over the frame.

I am often asked about my bows. I rarely “tie” a bow the traditional way. Instead I overlap each loop and pinch in the center. For this card I did this with two bows and placed them on top of one another.
