It's the third Monday of the month and you know what that means? Time for another Stamp Review Crew blog hop!  We're doing this one a little different this time, since there is such a short block of time for Valentine cards. This time we are using anything current that we can turn into a Valentine project.  This didn't require much thinking for me because I have the perfect Valentine set that I wanted to use for my three lovely children's Valentine cards!  
Over at Splitcoaststampers, I am on a discussion board that is trying to make better use of stamp sets that we have not inked up or have rarely used. For me, this set was a great Hostess set, Nuts About You. I just love the set, but have only used it once, I think!  
I'm so excited to have an early start on my Valentine's. Usually I am digging through my cards the morning of trying to figure out what looks good enough to give to everyone. :) I hope this hop will encourage you to get an early start, too!

This is so cute, Shana! I love the little hearts mixed in with the leaves. Great use of the stamp set!
ReplyDeleteThis is adorable! I love this tree scattered with hearts! Delightful Valentine for sure
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute card Shana! Love it! The embossed heart background looks awesome and using the 'Nut's about you' set is adorable. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteShana, you rocked that stamp set. I never would have thought to use it for a Valentine. Love how it looks against the textured background. Sounds like a great topic of discussion at Splitcoaststampers.

ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing! Your card is adorable and your kids are going to love it! I love how you popped up the squirrels and added the hearts to your tree.
