Be My Valentine

Hello!  This is Sukie and today I'm sharing a set of Valentine's cards for my guest designer post.  With Valentine's Day tomorrow, these are perfect to share with that special someone especially an animal lover.

These sweet puppies were die cut from the Puppy with Valentine and Puppy Love Letter dies.  The sentiment, banner and hearts are from the Be My Valentine Puppies die set.  I also cut out two circles from the Stitched Circle Set and two squares from the Double Stitched Square Set.

I went with a black, white and red theme for my card so the die cuts came together very quickly.  The puppies were cut with neutral shaded card stock.  A bit of Glossy Accents were added to the eyes and noses of the puppies.

The puppies were centered perfectly on the white circles.  After I adhered the tiny hearts next to the puppies, I decided to cut the black circles with my electronic die cutter for a frame.  The patterned papers are from the My Minds Eye "Charmed" 6x6 paper pad.  I love the row of neutral hearts amongst the black hearts.

The sentiment banner was adhered along the top edge of the die cut squares so that it would be centered above the puppies.

The finished die cuts were layered on the base of my card.  The sweet puppies are the perfect focal point for these Valentine's cards.

Here are the dies I used on my cards, available here:
