First of all I want to wish you all a

Happy Valentine’s Day!

I hope you are having a wonderful day!

Here is a very simple card I made with the new set Cheep Talk. I love those adorable birds. They are easy to make a fun card with.

The card base is a 4 1/4″ x 8 1/2″ piece of textured cardstock folded in half.

It was topped with a 4″ square of Baja Breeze cardstock. The bottom is covered with a 2″ x 4″ piece of Urban Oasis Designer Paper. It has a thin strip of Shimmery White cardstock underneath that was punched with the Scallop Edge Punch. 5/8″ wide Chocolate Chip Grosgrain Ribbon was tied underneath the white strip.

The birds are inked with Pacific Point, Tangerine Tango and Ridinghood Red ink and stamped on a 2″ x 2 7/8″ piece of Shimmery White cardstock. The edges were punched with the ticket corner punch and the piece was layered on a 1/4″ bigger piece of Ridinghood Red cardstock. The corners of that piece were also punched. The edges of the white cardstock were paper pierced.

The layers were attached to the card base with designer paper.  To add a bit more interest, I punched out a large oval out of Pacific Point cardstock and taped it to the lower right of the card base. I stamped the heart from Cheep Talk in Ridinghood Red on Shimmery White, punched it out with the 1/2″ circle punch and attached it to a Build a Brad. The brad was attached over the large oval punchout.

I will share the inside of the card on Wednesday.
