Here are a couple of cards that I made for Valentine’s Day.
A sparkly clear button and black sequin were added to the red hearts for a touch of fun.
The large heart was die cut out of the card base. By adhering a piece of double sided designer paper (dp) to the inside of the card, both sides of the dp can be seen. And it dresses up the inside of the card, too. LOVE!
Here are the challenges that the cards are playing along in this week:
Simon Says Wednesday Challenge: “Have a Heart”
Muse Challenge #102: Interpretated Muse by having a large heart and an offset element.
The Card Concept Challenge #27: I have made a “Clean and Simple” card design.
Fusion Challenge: “Two Hearts”
Just Us Girls Challenge: #277: “Photo Week”
Crazy4Challenges – C4C270: “Funky Holidays – Opposites”: Opposites include Black/White, Large Heart/Small Heart and using both the Front/Back of the designer paper in both card designs.
Happy Crafting!

I always love the look of black and white with a pop of red – very classic and bold! So glad you joined us at Muse this week!
Great use of our double sided papers, neat design and love your button!!
I love the bold look with that sharp black and red combo! Very stunning. Thanks for playing along at The Card Concept!
Red, white and black has always been one of my favorite color combos. Your design rocks — what a great idea to cut out the heart from the base and fill it in with DP. This is such a great CAS design.
Awesome cards – that paper is so pretty! Thanks for joining in at JUGS and Muse!
What a clever way to make a Valentine! I love the dual purpose of the dsp and the CAS look! Genius!
Love the bold graphic designs of these pretty Valentine hearts. The red heart really sparks up the B&W dp and is so dramatic against the crisp white. Good idea to use the same dp but the opposite side, in the interior too. TFS & Hugs
Love the clean and clear look! Great card!
At first glance, simple. But I love how you’ve placed your sentiment. And then the lovely surprise of the PP on the inside. What a fabulous idea.
These are fabulous designs — inside and out! Love the papers. Very fun!
Gorgeous set of cards! Simple and elegant. Love it.
Wonderful set of cards and thanks for sharing the double sided DSP trick/idea. Very fun.
