You Are Loved

Anytime I make Valentine's cards for a Make & Take class I always try to have a masculine version and a girly version. Well today I'm sharing the girly version. The masculine Valentine was posted last week but you can see it again by clicking HERE.



  • Basic Black Cardstock 4-1/4" x 11", scored at 5-1/2"
  • Timeless Elegance Designer Series Ppaper 4" x 11"
  • Pink Pirouette Cardstock 2" x 4-1/4"
  • Very Vanilla Cardstock 1-3/4" x 4-1/4"
  • Very Vanilla Cardstock 4" x 5-1/4"
  • Stamps: Grateful Bunch
  • Ink: Jet Black Stazon, Pink Pirouette
  • Accessories: 12" Silver Baker's Twine, Sweetheart Punch, Blushing Bride Glimmer Paper, Stampin' Dimensionals, Banner Triple Punch, Tea Lace Paper Doilies


For this card start off by folding the Basic Black cardstock on the score line and using glue stick to adhere the Timeless Elegance designer series paper onto the card front. Use Paper Snips to cut a Tea Lace Paper Doily in half and glue it onto the left side of the card front about half way up the card.


Use glue stick to adhere the strip of Very Vanilla cardstock onto the Pink Pirouette cardstock. Stamp the greeting from Grateful Bunch onto the center of the banner in Jet Black Stazon ink. Use the Banner Triple punch to punch the right end of the banner.

Wrap the silver twine around the straight end of the banner and tie it into a bow. Tip: when tying bows in twine first tie a double knot, then tie the bow. This will make it easier to keep the twine tight around the cardstock and still have a pretty bow!

Adhere the banner onto the card front with Stampin' Dimensionals. Use the Sweetheart punch on a piece of Blushing Bride Glimmer Paper and adhere the heart onto the banner with a Stampin' Dimensional.

Stamp the lace trim along both short sides of the large piece of Very Vanilla cardstock in Pink Pirouette ink. Use glue stick to adhere the panel inside the card.

Now you have a pretty and girly Valentine's Day card to share with someone special!
