Hot Lips...

Amanda Bates, The Craft Spa, Groovy Love, Valentine 002
Just thought I would re-share this simple little card which seems to be having a very big revival in views this year! Must have been ahead of my time! Though I really wish I had taken the photo from slightly further away!!! More details here 

Off to Quarterly Team Training today... yay! A happy day crafting with friends & sharing business tips... what is not to love! So I will be back later with my swap card...

Groovy Love Trio in Bermuda Bay & Perfect Plum

Groovy Love, made by Amanda Bates at The Craft Spa 050

Rather different colourway for me! This little trio has been put together for one of my new crafting ladies who has a love for hearts, Bermuda Bay, Perfect Plum, Island Indigo & Smoky Slate…. 

So here is a simple little trio for all occasions that she can reproduce simply & lovingly with her new ink pads, Groovy Love stamps & punches! Though she may need Teeny Tiny Sentiments or Crazy About You to complete the look….

First up – 4 simple over-stamped & punched hearts  - just to say Thanks…

Secondly – a 3D heart – 5 hearts punched, scored in half & glued together. Love the Happy Anniversary from Teeny Tiny Sentiments as part of the string! This card was inspired by a card shared on our SU! demo site, Stampin’ Connection which was made by Sherri-Lynn Brophy. Thanks Sherri-Lynn…

And finally – a ready made SU! notecard punched from the bottom. Larger dotty border heart stamped around & a punched heart placed through the aperture onto the inside of the card. Doesn’t photo well but looks very effective in the flesh.

Coming to the end of my Groovy Love hearts soon…. I am still laughing at the amount of cards I have made using this little set… definitely got carried away…. proving that hearts really are a crafting staple…

Valentine Square Double Display Card

Groovy Love, Valentine Square Double Display Card. The Craft Spa 001

Just a quick share of this year’s Valentine card. Now as this is destined for the menfolk… there are no frills!! It is purposely kept plain & simple with the message saying it all….

By the way…. this is a new variant of the Square Double Display Card…. if the last one was the card with “more front”…this one is the one with “more back!” But more of that on another day…. as there is a funny story to be told…..

Another view….

Groovy Hot Lips for Valentine

Amanda Bates, The Craft Spa, Groovy Love, Valentine 002

And now for something rather different from me! Probably been done a 1000 times before…but not that I’ve seen…. Just 2 punches using the Sweetheart Punch – one score down the middles and there you have it! Hot Lips…..

Don’t think you can’t get much simpler than this for a Valentines card…. & hopefully I will even get a smile from my teenage son!!

Back tomorrow with something a bit fancier for Valentines Day… photo too blurred to post today!
