Winged Heart Valentine Postcards

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! I hope you receive a card...or postcard...or two and some yummy chocolate! Today, is also the hubs birthday, so we celebrate extra big! I have some postcards to share with you today that I sent out to my special peeps and students that took my Valentine class last weekend. Enjoy the day and night!
I made two different versions...gold and turquoise. I painted the postcards backgrounds with Tim Holtz Distress Paint from Ranger and then stamped over it with Wendy's Red Geranium and Valentine Silhouettes from Tim and Stamper's Anonymous, and added lots of tissue and washi tape from my stash. I die cut the hearts, wings, and crown, and embossed the crowns with Tim Sizzix goodies. I painted the wings with Pearl Metallic Paint Dabber, and splashed lots of Alcohol Inks and Distress Spray Stains over the hearts. 
 
 
 
I wish you all so much love today, and I truly treasure all of you out there who support me! Blessings everyone!

I hope your hands get creatively dirty soon!

Forever Friends Valentine Card

Hello crafters. Today, I have another Valentine Card for you using Tim Holtz Ephemera and Collage Medium from Ranger. Yummy! This card can be used for other occasions besides Valentines, but that is what I originally designed it for.
I painted Aged Mahogany and Candied Apple Distress Paint over Tim's new Heavy Stock, and a Game Piece as well. I also misted Crinkle Ribbon with Distress Spray Stain.
I die cut 'forever friends' using Tim's Handwritten Love Thinlets Die...I love that set.
Over more Heavy Stock, I stamped the Script and inked the edges.
I inked the edges of ephemera and set them up like I wanted them to be on the card.
I adhered all the ephemera to the card using Vintage Collage Medium as well as Tissue Tape. I also adhered the photo to the Baroque Frame with Vintage Collage Medium, and added the Remnant Rub. Then I added all of the other items.
 
 
I have one more Valentine post, so please stay tuned. Thank you for all the comments everyone!
