It's time to start my Valentine's Day cards. It's also the time of year when I feel the desire to really work on using up my bits and pieces stash. The two events seem to work well together. Here's my first Valentine:
The pieced tag and the small piece of patterned paper the cupcake wrapper is stamped on (used it for some paper piecing) were both in my bits and pieces stash. The gray strip, the heart, the cupcake and the sentiment panel were all made from scraps, so this is a very scrappy card!Supplies:
Stamps: PTI "Baker's Dozen" cupcake; MFT "Candy Jar Companions" sentiment and pink hearts
Dies: Spellbinders "Scalloped tag trio" tag and "Label's One" sentiment panel; Sweet n Sassy Stamps heart; PTI "Baker's Dozen"
