Card Making for Valentine’s Day

If you’re my friend and read my blog one of these cards might be in your mailbox next month.

Last night I went to a cardmaking workshop at Paper-Source where I bought paper scraps for the collage I blogged about a few days ago. All the materials were provided, along with numerous innovative and specialized scrapbooking tools. One of the coolest tools messed around with was called a Xyron. It turned anything  you put through it (that was flat) into a sticker. Amazing! We also played with heat emboss glitter and funky shaped punches.  I have come to the conclusion that I need some more paper punches. They are extremely versatile.

This was the first card I made. It had the best result with the heat emboss.

The glitter hearts were punched out of paper that already had an adhesive backing. I also used washi tape and a corner punch.
