Good Morning! With Valentine’s Day around the corner, I pulled out my Stampin’ Up! Country Bouquet stamp set and punch to use with the pretty Bee Mine designer series paper for a Valentine’s day card. You can find the products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

I adhered a panel of Daffodil Delight plaid Bee Mine Designer series paper to a Pool Party mat and adhered it to the front of a Sweet Sorbet card base with dimensionals. I cut another panel of the Bee mine DSP with one of the square dies from the Stylish Shapes dies and adhered it to a Pool Party mat.

I wrapped a length of Sweet Sorbet ribbon across the left side of the card, folding it and adhering it with Stampin’ Seal. I made it long enough to extend beyond the square and adhered the square on top with dimensionals. I stamped the large heart from the Stampin’ Up! Country Bouquet stamp set in Sweet Sorbet ink on Basic White and punched it out. I stamped the leaves in Pool Party ink on Basic White and punched them out. I adhered the leaves to the bottom of the heart with glue dots and adhered the leaves and heart to the square with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Country Bouquet stamp set in Sweet Sorbet ink on a Basic White panel. I cut it out with the second smallest banner die from the Stylish Shapes dies and adhered it to the card with glue dots and dimensionals. I finished the little square with hearts and flowers embellishments.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the Valentine’s Day sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Country Bouquet stamp set in Sweet Sorbet ink on a Basic White panel. I used stamped off Pool Party ink to make the little bee trail from the Bee My Valentine stamp set and stamped some more Country Bouquet hearts in Petal Pink and Sweet Sorbet. I trimmed the bottom with a strip of Bee Mine DSP and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal

The Stampin’ Up! Country Bouquet stamp set and punch is my favorite Valentine’s day set from last year’s catalog (and it’s still available!) and this sweet set goes so well with the pretty Bee Mine Designer series paper. With Valentine’s Day just around the corner and the bitter cold weather, it’s a perfect time to make Valentine’s Day cards and other love themed projects to warm your heart!

Normally a $300 party will result in $36 in Stampin’ Rewards for the host, but during Sale-A-Bration a $300 party will result in $66 in Stampin’ Rewards!
