Valenitine Defined

It is time to start on Valentine's Day cards! This one is done with the new set in the Occasions Mini Catalog called, "Valentine Defined". I just love the little smooching flamingos. To get the sparkly paper turn your versa mark pad over and ink up your whole paper. Then cover with Iridescent Ice and heat it up with your heat tool.

Punches: Heart to Heart

Paper: Basic Black/ Riding Hood Red, Love Letters DSP

Bookmarks

I have been looking at this Halloween paper for awhile and wondering what I wanted to do with it. Then I got the idea to make these bookmarks for my daughters "Specials" teachers. That would be, PE, Music, Art, and Library. These are teachers that sometimes get over looked on the holidays because they have so many kids during the day. I just tied them on to a full sized chocolate bar and put a cute little tag on the back. Happy Halloween to them!
