Be Mine shutter card

Hey everybody! A good ol’ Happy Thursday to you all! I’m delighted to share a Keep It Simple DT inspiration project created with the new Sent With Love Collection released in January! This collection has THE best selection of papers, stamps, dies, stencils, and die cut pieces you’ll ever find to make love cards! Be sure to check out the coordinating ribbon, enamel dots and hearts, and Sprinkles, too! I used an assortment of papers, stamps and dies, and you know how much I love me some fun folds… this Valentine shutter card was definitely a win-win!

Unfortunately I don’t have sharable instructions for this shutter card (I’ve had my handwritten notes for many years) but searching ‘shutter card tutorial’ online will bring up lots of resources.

Card base and shutter pieces were cut from CutCardStock Lessebo Cherry Red cardstock along with layering panels from assorted prints in the Sent With Love 6×9 Collection Pack. Images on the front and inside were stamped with the Sent With Love Collection Stamps and cut with the coordinating Outline Dies. Some were stamped with Memento Angel Pink ink and Catherine Pooler Rockin’ Red ink, and some were stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with alcohol markers.

I used a piece of greenery from the Lumberjack Die Cut Pieces along with green enamel dots from the Bunny Season Collection to embellish the card front. Back To Basics Stitched Circles Nested Dies were used to cut the circle for the front and the aperture on the inside. The image inside the shutter portion was heat embossed and colored with alcohol markers.
