Bear Hugs Card

Today I'm posting another card that can be used for Valentine's Day or other occasions, or even 'just because'.  Here it is.

Supplies used
Paper: Red and white cardstock
Tools: Cutting/embossing machine, post card, polka-dots and fancy oval embossing folders, computer and printer
Stamp: 'Bear-hugs-for-you' 
Embellishments: White and red bow, red and clear heart gemstones

It was so much fun to make this card. I hope you make one for that someone special in your life. You can finish the sentence 'Because' with a message inside the card that shows the reason for the 'bear hugs'. 

Thank you for stopping by. Happy Valentine's Day

Candy Style Gift Box - Free Printable Template

Valentine's Day became a big holiday for couples. But I've been blessed with a husband that doesn't wait for Valentine's Day to give me a little something. Once in a while he likes to give me a treat like my favorite candy bar or a rose 'just because...' So, even if you already have a gift and/ or a card for your Valentine, keep this box in mind for any other occasions or 'NOT occasions'. The possibilities are endless. Just change the cover. 
Supplies used
Paper: white cardboard, white with red polka-dots scrapbook paper
Tools: template, 1/4" circle punch, spray adhesive
Embellishments: red bows + optional embellishments shown in pictures below
Template (12"x 12" paper)
Right click on picture to save to your computer and/or print.
After cutting white cardbord, spray it with spray adhesive and glue it to a 12" x 12" scrapbook paper. Let it dray well before cutting and folding.
Some embellishments options


 Thank you for visiting my blog. Happy Thanksgiving.
