Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here sharing my Will You Be My Valentine? Card for the Design Team of Paper Nest Dolls. Have you started your Valentine cards yet?

For my card, I used the sweet Emma with Panda. Even though this digital stamp isn’t a Valentine image, I thought that Emma made the perfect Valentine card with her panda! Wouldn’t you love to receive a panda like hers as a Valentine gift?

The Details of My Card

It was so much fun colouring Emma and her panda with my Copic markers! I decided to colour them red, white and black/gray to match the papers that I had picked out. Even though they are not Valentine papers, I wanted red/white dots to echo her shirt and the Magical Adventures paper was perfect for that! The Breeze Papers gave the card a bit of elegance while bringing in the white/black/gray to match everything else.

Since this is my Valentine’s card, I included hearts with the large white doily and the heart die from Penny Black. I used the White Gelly Roll Pen on the dots on her shirt. The Clear Wink of Stella is on her bow and shoes. The Black Gelly Roll Pen was used to give the Panda dimension in his eyes. The red and white jewel felt flowers were found in the dollar area of my local Michaels Arts & Crafts store.

Don’t you just love the Panda button with his glittery face! I had to make sure that the bow from my die was under him…like unwrapping a present! The Real Red Ruched Ribbon adds a nice touch of red behind the focal point. A couple of red and clear rhinestones add a bit of sparkle! Just goes to show you that you can make a Valentine card out of things that are not necessarily all Valentine!
