Simple "from the heart"

Hi!! Hope you have had a great start to your week!! I have a card to share with you today! I was inspired to make this card when I saw the cover of my February Stampin' Success (for Stampin' Up! Demonstrators only). Stampin' Up! uses the Sending Love Notes that are in the Occasions Mini Catalog, but I didn't have any. (I will be sure to order some on my next order though!!!) I used my Note Cards that are in the Stampin' Up! Idea Book & Catalog on page 168. The card measures 5"x3-1/2". These Note Cards come in a package of 20 scored Whisper White cards and 20 envelopes, all for $5.95. What a deal! And these are the perfect size when you are making a clean and simple card and don't want too much "white" space.

Don't forget...if you order the I {Heart} Heart stamp set, Stampin' Up! will donate $2 from each set to help the victims of the terrible earthquake that struck Haiti.

Supplies:
Stamps: I {heart} Hearts, Holidays & Wishes (retired)
Ink: Real Red, Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery
Paper: Whisper White Note Cards, Real Red, Whisper White
Accessories: Heart to Heart Punch, Bold Bright Buttons, Linen Thread

Tip: I stamped "off" on the Real Red heart, so that it would kind of "blend" with the other colors, and not be so bright. And I wanted a little more contrast in front of the Real Red cardstock.

Have a great day!

Karen
