January Specials-Just in time for Valentine's Day!

It's hard to believe a New Year is upon us and Valentine's Day is right around the corner.  The January Stamp of the Month-Happy Valentine's is perfect for creating a Valentine card for that special someone, but can also be used for an anniversary or sympathy card as well.  The roses are so pretty and elegant. 

 

 

For the card below, I used a color combination of Whisper, Slate, Ruby and White Daisy.  I created my own patterned paper by random stamping the large rose image in Slate ink on Whisper cardstock.  I also inked the edges of all the papers with Slate ink.  The hearts were cut out using the Cricut Artiste Cartridge.  For embellishments I chose Clear Sparkles and the Silver Shimmer Trim to add some sparkle & shine. 

 

 



This set is available during the month of January for $17.95, or only $5 with a $50 purchase.  Email me to place your order or you can go directly to my website by CLICKING HERE.  Be sure to "JOIN" one of my open gatherings during checkout. 

Also, don't forget about the National Papercrafting Month Special-Whoo's Your Valentine.  This super cute Valentine Treat Kit is perfect for classroom parties, favors etc.   The kit is only $10 with a $35 purchase and includes everything you need to create 12 Valentine Treats.  The stamp set is adorable too.  Here's what you get in the kit;
