    Vellum Heart Valentine

    This card was fun to make as I got to use up some of the patterned vellum I’ve had on my shelf for a long time. I didn’t think of it right away, but I was glad the idea popped into my head eventually. I started out with some options for an A2 card base…

    Sending Hedgehugs

    As it’s now January, I will most likely be making several Valentine’s cards over the next while.

For example, this…
