Still with me? Well then, welcome my fellow snark-lovers! It's Jennifer here with a terrible, horrible Valentine for you today that still has me laughing. While I'm now happily married and am free of the Valentine stress of my youth, I still remember detesting this "holiday" - tons of happy couples wandering around looking all dewy-eyed at each other, overpriced roses, stuffed animals saying " I {heart} you!"....BARF. I was bitter and alone and made no qualms about it. Heck, I still avoid overpriced roses...but that's another rant.
Drawing upon those feelings (and remembering a few people who were downright depressed that they were alone on Valentine's Day), this card was born:
For the card base, I diecut (2) large hearts, scored the second about 1/4" down from the top, then set it aside for stamping and assembly. From the same die set I grabbed a smaller heart then stamped it up with Phineas tail swirls in Hero Arts Bubblegum Pink ink. I selectively stamped half the sentiment on the outside here, then heat embossed it with Hero Arts Fine White Embossing powder. To finish off the front, I punched two small hearts from the same deep pink as the card base, then coated them with my clear Wink of Stella and Glossy Accents.
Pretty, right? Wait for it...
