Stampin Up Outlined Occasions Valentines Day Note Card

I got the inspiration for the flags card from the uber talented Kritina Werner; here is the link to the original video tutorial.

I have also created 3×3 note sized Valentine’s Day cards using the oh-so-verstaile Owl punch from Stampin Up!  There are SOOOO many ways to use this punch you will never run out of ideas for it!!

Here are two of my newest creations:

The owl punch is incredibly versatile and can be used to create a wide variety of critters other than owls!!  I have seen penguins, bats, super hero’s etc.

Adventure #1: Waiting for the UPS driver

Why is it that when you’re eagerly awaiting a package it always is the last one on the delivery route?! *giggle* I swear, I was checking the door to my apartment, and the foyer entrance door every half an hour to make sure I didn’t miss the driver somehow. Pacing to the window and everything!! It was kind of funny in a crazy way now that I look back on it. >_<

I got the box and ripped it open, it was like Christmas!! I immediately started tinkering with what I had gotten.

Using the “Kindness Matters” stamp set, I made this really pretty butterfly card.  I must give credit to Tami White for the inspiration and tips on how to use clear mount stamps. You can view her video tutorial here: http://youtu.be/NB8RkC-4XAA

It was her tip on how to..ahem… “separate” (cut)  :O clear mount stamps so that you can use single images.   That is how I was able to stamp the butterflies vertically.
