On the label I stamped the flower pot in Pebbled Path ink. I added the leaves with Lemon Lime Twist  and Garden Green inks. I masked off the top of the pot with a Post It Note. The label was then glued to the 2⅞” by 2⅛” piece of Pebbled Path card.

I placed the decorated panel on the 5½” by 3¾” panel of Basic White card, roughly where I planned to adhere it. I then stamped the leaves in the upper left and lower right corners of the topper. The topper was then added to the panel on Dimensionals. The whole panel was glued to the larger Pebbled Path layer and then to the Lemon Lime Twist card front.

The sentiment, from the Lifetime of Love stamp set was stamped in Versamark ink onto a scrap ⅜” strip of Pebbled Path card. I covered it with White Embossing Powder and heat set it. I cut the sentiment apart and added it to the card front.

 To recreate the Playful Valentine card. You will need:

Thick Basic White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Window Sheet – 4⅛” by 2¼”
Misty Moonlight – 4⅛” by ⅜”

I added strips of Tear & Tape Adhesive down the length of each strip and added them to the Window Sheet panel leaving a small gap between each strip. I trimmed off the excess using sharp scissors.

Dimensionals and Mini Dimensionals were then added to the Window Sheet behind the card stock strips, so they would be hidden and the whole panel adhered to the card front.

A Valentine card made for my husband using the Rooted In Nature stamp set by Stampin' Up!

Rooted In Nature non-traditional Valentine Card

Posted on by

Today I am sharing the Valentine’s card I made for my husband. It is a non-traditional valentine card as he would hate a lovey dovey, hearts and flowers card.  I used the Rooted In Nature stamp set to make a card featuring leaves and nature which he loves.

Making the non-traditional Valentine card

I started with a panel of Whisper White cardstock measuring 5⅞” by 2⅛”. I selected a variety of leaves from the Rooted In Nature stamp set and chose a variety of green inks with which to stamp them, starting with the largest images and filling up the space with the smaller leaves. The inks I used were Shaded Spruce, Old olive, Pear Pizzazz and Soft Sea Foam, I deliberately overlapped some of the images to give a fuller look.

When the ink was dry I rubbed over the panel with my Embossing Buddy before stamping one of the images again in Versamark ink. I covered the panel with Gold Embossing Powder and heat set it using my Heat Tool. So pretty….

I cut a panel of Shaded Spruce at 5⅞” by 2⅜”and adhered it to the back of the stamped and embossed layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I cut a piece of Gold Foil at 5⅞” by ½” and added it to the right hand side of the panel before adhering the whole piece to a Soft Sea Foam card base.

I cut a strip of Vellum 2⅛ by 1” and stamped the word YOU from the Well Said stamp set in Versamark ink, covered it with Gold Embossing Powder and heat set it with my Heat Tool. I die cut the word LOVE from a scrap of Shaded Spruce cardstock using the Well Written framelit dies and my Big Shot. I added the die cut to the vellum using tiny dots of Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I added the vellum panel to the card front with tiny dots of Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive hidden behind the words.

I am really happy with this non-traditional Valentine card and I am sure my husband will like it too.
