Valentine Cards

I saw this great way to use up scraps of decorative papers to make Valentine's Day cards on Debby Wilde's blog. Not only do you use up your scraps, but you have the choice of using the positive and negative images of a large heart to be used on the front and inside of one card, or to be the fronts of two different cards. For the first card, I used up some of my huge supply of scrapbooking paper scraps.

I realized my recently made glue resist backgrounds would look great as torn scraps in a Valentine's Card. I made two different cards with this one scrap sheet. I decided to go for two distinct looks with these same papers. For the first one I used a non traditional color of yellow to make it light & fun. I think my daughter will like this one.

For the second one, I choose this rich burgundy paper to give it a more romantic feel, to send to my DH.
