Awwww, isn't this sweet? This is called a Criss-Cross card - and I'm just lovin' it! It has a pocket to stick your message into - and you pull the message out by the little heart at the top! I saw this card on Stampin' Connection by Natasha Byrne, but changed it to the colors I wanted. This almost looks like a piece of candy to me! The recipe is below.

It's a Love Thing Camp Wannastamp!

For some reason (I think it's the Vanilla on Vanilla), this card is so special to me. I was inspired by a card similar to this on Stampin' Connection, but wanted to put my own special touch to it! I just can't seem to get enough of tone-on-tone cards. They are the prettiest to me, and adding the Chantilly Crochet Trim and the Trinket Key just makes me melt! The recipe is below.

Isn't this just GOJUS, as Jan Tink would say? To me, Valentine's Day doesn't have to be just about romantic love! I give my kids Valentine's Day things and my friends, too! That's why I like this card - it's girly-girl vintage and so elegant - perfect for a friend, daughter, or sister for Valentine's Day. I saw Emma Fewkes' card on Stampin' Connection and knew it was PERFECT for my Valentine's Day stamp camp! I changed the color to Very Vanilla and made my card a long card instead of a 4 X 4, which I believe hers is. The recipe is below.

It's a Love Thing Camp Wannastamp!

Here's one of the cards we made at my "It's a Love Thing" Camp Wannastamp. This is totally cased from my idol, Mary Fish! I didn't care for this stamp set until I saw her card and then, of course, I had to have it! The little heart on the "love" portion of the card is in our Red Glimmer Paper, so it's all blingy and cute, which you can't see very well in the picture. I love putting our designer series paper on the envelope flap - it's just adorable and all matchy-matchy! The recipe is below.
