Ty's Valentine's - ROAR!

Happy Valentine's Day!! As I've discussed in almost every post recently, I LOVE VALENTINE'S DAY!!! Not for the lovey, dovey, "Hallmark" nature of it all....and not because I love my family and friends today any more than any other day but I love the cuteness and the colors, and the candy and the fun that surrounds the holiday!In any event - I had SOOOOOOOOO much fun making these tiny Valentine's for my son Tyler's classmates!!! So simple and so easy.

I used Kraft cardstock as my base. I used the Tiny Treats Valentine's set from PTI. It is THE cutest set EVER!! I love everything that PTI puts out but THIS set is fantabulous!!! I've used it not only for my children's Valentine's for their classmates but for other projects that I have been working on.

So back to my son's Valentine's. I used the Kraft base - I chose the Dino and it's matching sentiment. I stamped the dino on ivory PTI cardstock in Brilliance Coffee Bean Craft ink and heat set it. I then used my Lipstick Red Copic marker to color in the tiny heart. I corner rounded 2 of the corners and adhered it to the card using 3D pop dots. I then stamped the sentiment in the black craft ink and heat set that directly onto the card front. I cut the same PTI ivory cardstock for the interior of the card and used the To: and From: stamped in Rocket Red Brilliance Craft Ink and heatset on the inside of the card.
The envelopes are SU! confetti cream and I lined them with Navy cardstock from Martha Stewart. I cannot wait for my son to hand these out to his classmates!!!

Thanks for visiting!!!

XOXO-
Meredith
