I thought I would share a valentine that would work well for a man as well as a woman. The heart is a combination of the Damask Heart (G1855) as well as the the Grand Heart Die (98254), which cuts out the damask heart perfectly. It is kind of hard to tell from the picture, but I embossed the heart with red powder to make it nice and shiny. There is just something about embossing powders on kraft paper that I really like.
To finish the card, I added some kraft cardstock to the bottom of my mocha card and added an extra strip of the kraft paper that I ran through a corrugator. Finally, I added some neutral twine and the Valentine Duo (B1424) saying.
Hi Laura,
Your Valentine using the damask heart is gorgeous! I was just using mine over the weekend.
