Hi Stampers
It is definitely not too early to start thinking about making Valentine's cards. You are going to want to take advantage of the Filled with Love Promotion. You buy a stamp set and coordinating designer series paper and you get FREE Itty Bitty Buttons. For all the details, click here
This stamp is from the new Occasions Mini Catalog which will go live on 4 January 2010. It's absolutely gorgeous and who doesn't love hearts! The stamp is called Be My Valentine
The base card is Naturals Ivory Card Stock. The next layer is also Naturals Ivory Card Stock – I used the Top Note Bigz Die and then used the Vintage Wallpaper Texture Embossing Folder for the embossing. The Real Red Satin Ribbon was scrunched up and adhered to the Top Note Die Cut with Sticky Strip.
I stamped the heart image on Real Red Card Stock using Real Red Craft Ink. I then applied the Clear Stampin' Emboss Powder and used the Heat Tool to set it. The heart was cut out with my Paper Snips.

I love the look of the heart stamp embossed. So shimmery & pretty. I never thought of using an EB on the Top Note die. What an overall pretty card. Will you be giving it to hubby?
Very pretty…love the red and white…simply elegant!
