Scribble Rose Trio and Double Stitch Happy Heart Cutouts by Jean Okimoto

The 2020 Valentine's release is here! It's a great collection of hearts, frames, words, flowers, foliage, butterflies - and a detailed deep-impression 3-D embossing folder. We can't wait to share our latest designs with you and hope you'll be inspired to highlight them in your projects. Hello, Jean Okimoto here with the first of many Design Team Valentine designs.

Cut the largest Double Stitch Happy Heart Cut Out from Smoky cardstock. Cut the heart with the second-largest die from the set. Save the center heart for another project - we're using the outer section as a frame here.

Attach Birch Press Designs Shimmer Lines Wide Washi Tape to pink cardstock and cut it with the second-largest heart. It's a generous 4-½" wide tape - with delicate gold lines and a frosty, translucent look. Use it as an overlay to enhance white and colored cardstock and create custom-colored coordinated backgrounds and accents for your projects.

Cut the detailed Scribble Rose Trio outline from light gray cardstock. Cut the solid rose trio from pink cardstock. Emboss the pink diecut with the outline using the plates and embossing mat required for your machine. Embossing adds dimension and shadows.

Stamp "cherish" - from the Big and Little Valentine's Clear Stamps - onto a white A-6 (4-½" x 6--¼") card with Morning Mist VersaFine Clair. Attach the diecuts.

View the Valentine Collection here - we hope you'll love it as much as we do!

Big thanks to everyone from last week's WHITTLE, SCRIBBLE & STACK class at Impress! It was like a festive cardmaking party among friends - with wonderful holiday treats from Jenny, Jan, Jean C, Jacky, Kelly and Lynne. It was an 8:6 ratio of treats:cards! We laughed, ate - and even made 6 cards. Thank you for all of your special treats! Thanks too - Ann, Erin and Lynne - for helping everyone shop.

Thanks for visiting - see you again on Saturday with another Valentine's 2020 Collection design...
