Easy Peasy Valentine's Day Cards

Good Morning,  Here are a couple of easy Valentine's Day cards for you.  Over at Splitcoast Stampers the Limited Supplies Challenge #253 was to create a card using the following criteria: 1. Create a happy card - which meant to make one in under 15 minutes, 2. Use something new - my Studio G stamp, and 3. It has to be for an annual event - Valentine's Day.  I was really happy because it only took me 15 minutes to make both cards! 

Supplies: Paper: SU; Stamps: Studio G; Ink: Memento; Other: SU Ribbon and Nestabilities.

Just My Sketches #29

Good Morning!  It's freezing here in sunny Florida today!  Last night when we left a friends house it was so cold that I couldn't stop shaking and my body tensed all up, (I forgot about feeling from when I lived up North)...brrrrr.  It hasn't been that cold here since we moved down and that was 12 years ago and it's suppose to be like this for another week at least.

Anyway, here is a card I made from a sketch at Just My Sketches.  It's another Valentine Day card, not your typical pink card but I really like the bold colors.

Supplies: Paper: My Minds Eye, PTI, and SU; Stamp: The Greeting Farm; Copics: R00, E00, R20, E15, E17, E19, RV02, RV06, YG06, and YG09; Other: Stickles, Cuttlebug Folder, Nestabilities, Stitching, Inking, Ribbon, and a Tim Holtz Tag.
