Valentines, schmalentines...

***Comments are now closed for the giveaway***

Around our house we aren't big on celebrating Valentine's Day, but being a crafter I feel like I can't overlook it.


For this card I used the Market Street Stamps background stamp Hearts A Plenty and stamped it using VersaMark Watermark ink on the card base. I used the heart stamps from the Follow Your Heart set and mounted them on some curled jewelry wire to add a little fun.

I topped it off with some ribbon and a stamped sentiment to make a quick and easy Valentine's Day card.

If you are a sketch-lover I've included a sketch here for you:


What?
That's not enough for you today?
Okay...how about a little candy to satisfy your sweet tooth?

How do you like this BLOG CANDY?


There are some clear stamps, stickers, transparencies, embellishments, chipboard pieces, blank cards and envelopes...and of course a little sampling of The Twinery's twine.

All I ask for your entry into this giveaway is to become a follower of my blog and leave me a comment on this post. I will stop accepting comments on Thursday night at midnight and post a winner on Friday, February 18th. {Sorry, US addresses only - unless you'd like to pay the International shipping cost.}

If you want me to be able to notify you if you are a winner you will need to be sure to leave a way for me to get ahold of you in the comments.

Supplies:
Cardstock: Bazzill, Georgia Pacific
Stamps: Market Street Stamps {Hearts A Plenty, Follow your Heart}, Hero Arts
Ink: ColorBox, Memento
Ribbon: Maya Road
Other: beading wire
