Hello! I find I have made lots of Valentines this year. In addition to the regular cards I need each year, my craft group is making them for the residents at a local Assisted Living. So, I did need to mass-produce, and make a bunch of cards that were the same, but different.
I decided to use both a cute elephant image and a skunk image. I colored these simply with alcohol markers and cut them all out. I then decided on a basic sketch. I was able to change up the patterned papers, the embossing folders, and used both textured and lumiere cardstocks from my stash.
I then went through my stamps and found some fun sentiments to use both on the outsides and insides of the cards. I was thinking of the recipients (whether it be a young family member, or a boy classmate, etc) when I was doing this so I had a suitable sentiment for each one.
I feel like I have now gotten a ton of use out of these stamp sets, both today and for some previous cards. Next year, I think I am going to need new Valentine stamps so that I am not sending the same types of cards out again. Here are some photos of all the cards I made, 11 in total!
Supplies: Avery Elle Ellie stamp set, Lawn Fawn Stinkin’ Cute stamp set, Jillibean Soup JB0837 Sweet Treat stamp set, Hero Arts Celebrate Everyday sentiment set, Firefly Heart dies, Foil 6x6 Paper pad from Target, various other supplies from my stash
