Happy February my fellow stampers. How was everyone’s weekend? Did anyone do anything fun? Plans changed for me very quickly yesterday morning. I was only supposed to go into work for a couple hours in the office to close out the month, I ended up there all day. One of my cashiers got her 2nd Covid shot and had a reaction, so that left us short handed. I got my main work done, then I was out running a register for the remainder of the day because it was so busy. We’re getting hit with a snow storm and suddenly no one has shovels or salt. Yesterday was my husbands birthday so those plans changed too. My daughter did still baked him a yummy chocolate cake with 7 minute frosting though.

I have a really quick and easy Valentine card for you today. Take a look.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Lovely You Cling Stamp Set for my card along with the gorgeous Love You Always Specialty Designer Series Paper.

I started by adhering a panel of the Love You Always Specialty DSP to a Sahara Sand mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the matted panel to a Blushing Bride card base using Stampin’ Seal.

I stamped the sentiment from the Lovely You stamp set in Sahara Sand Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the small flower image from the Lovely You stamp set in Blushing Bride Ink in the corners of the panel. I cut a panel of Love You Always Foil Sheet using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I adhered the artwork to the foil mat using Stampin’ Seal.

I adhered a piece of the Blushing Bride 3/8″ Metallic Ribbon to the card front using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the matted sentiment over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the sentiment panel.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Heart To Heart Photopolymer Stamp Set in Sahara Sand Ink in the center of a Basic White panel. I stamped the small flower image from the Lovely You stamp set in Blushing Bride Ink on either side of the sentiment. I adhered a strip of the Love You Always Specialty DSP to the bottom of the panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Sahara Sand mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Blushing Bride card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the small flower image from the Lovely You stamp set in Blushing Bride Ink in the corners of the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the Love You Always Specialty DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like my QAE card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!
