This is my second post with the “Hearts of Elegance” Bundle. HERE was my first post with this product bundle. In February, I had time to play with this awesome bundle and created a few cards. However, lately, it seems that my days have been quite busy as I am again preparing for another local vendor event the first weekend in May. This particular bundle is found on the Stampin’ Up! website under “On-Line Exclusives”.

The “fold” of this card is at the two top edges of the “heart”. Basically, I placed the heart die just below the “fold” of the card stock before running it through the “Die Cut and Emboss Machine”. The smaller heart layer was die cut from the “Marbeled Elegance” DSP. I absolutely love the “pierced” border on this die as it adds great detail! I stamped the flowers and leaves from this stamp set and die cut those as well. The “tag” die is from the “Greetings of the Season” Dies which sadly are no longer available. However, you could substitute several other punched or diecut shapes for your greeting. A few of the items in the “Hearts of Elegance” suite of products are retiring and can be found on the “Last Chance” products. The stamp/die bundle along with the DSP are still available.

Here’s a view of the inside of this cute card. You can really see the “pierced” border on the white card stock. Absolutely loved how this super easy card turned out!
Celebrate Love Mix & Match Ephemera Pack
My second and last Valentine’s card uses the “Celebrate Love Mix & Match Ephemera Pack”. The card base is Bubble Bath with a Melon Mambo accent layer. Also, I used a few elements from the ephemera pack. I chose to color a few of the elements with Stampin’ Blends to lend a bit more interest and help create my focal point.

These Ephemera Packs contain numerous precut images that make creating cards easy peasy. Just let your imagination or vision guide you through the creating process! I absolutely loved the simplicity and ease in creating this card!
