My card today may be one of my all-time favorites! I love the simplicity of it. Of ocurse, it was easy to create, which is a definite plus. And, it uses a stamp set that I adore – Happy Congratulations. Iused a Note Card for this card. Simple to create, no extra postage required to mail and it uses only Whisper white c.s.

I stamped the hanging circle image from Happy Congratulations with Black StazOn ink. The row of hearts from the stamp set Language of Love was stamped in Real Red Ink. A nice bonus is that they are the exact size of the Small Heart Punch so it was super easy to punch them out and pop them up on the circles.

The sentiment is from Love You to the Moon. It was stamped once in Black StazOn and then again with Real red ink. I fussy cut the "o" from the red Love and popped it up on the black Love.
The flap of the envelope was lined with paper from the Brights Designer Stack.
That was it! seriously – could it be any easier?
Here's a look at the row of hearts that I talked about above. The stamp set with the LOVE follows.

And the following set has the LOVE sentiment used above.

Although the card today is not as simple as yesterday, it is still an easy card.

Blushing Bride, Smokey Slate and Basic Gray cardstock combine for a sweet valentine. A new Photopolymer stamp set, Countless Sayings 1 provides the dramatic Love. It has a nice assortment of coordinating sentiments.

The Basic Gray c.s. is embossed with the new Scallops Textured Embossing Folder from the Occassions mini and the Smokey Slate c.s. is adorned with hearts from the Adorning Accents Folder found on page 190 of the Annual catalog.
A snippet of Tea Lace Paper Doilie adds a soft touch to the gray c.s. And, a couple of small hearts punched from Blushing Bride c.s. with the Small heart Punch add to the love theme. After stamping the large Love sentiment with basic Gray on Blushing bride c.s., i cut it out with an Apothecary Accents Framelit. A few Basic Pearls and the card is finished.
