Hey everybody! I hope your week is rockin’ right along and you’re getting ready for a great weekend! I’m stoked to be back with another Keep It Simple DT inspiration project created with the amazing new Sent With Love Collection! This is an amazing collection full of gorgeous papers, stamps, dies, die cut pieces, and stencils! There is ribbon and there are enamel shapes already in the store that coordinate with this collection as well as new shaker bits! I created a fun truck-shaped Valentine card featuring papers and die cut pieces from the collection along with our vintage truck and stitched circle dies!

Using the Vintage Truck Dies, I cut the shaped card base from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock and all the truck pieces and parts from coordinating papers in the Sent With Love 12×12 Collection Pack and CutCardStock Lessebo Pitch Black and Stardream Metallic Silver cardstock.

I embellished the card with a variety of die cuts from the Sent With Love Die Cut Pieces and Sent With Love Words & Phrases Die Cut Pieces, and used Clear Enamel Dots on the tail lights. I added an 80# Solar White stitched circle to the inside cut with the Stitched Circles Nested Dies and embellished with patterned paper and die cuts.

Hey everybody! Happy Saturday! I’m thrilled to be back with another ScrapbookingStore DT inspiration project created with the amazing February 2023 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades! I’m loving all these double-sided papers and the best part about kits is that the stickers and upgrades coordinate so well with the papers. All the matchy-matchy work is done for you! I’ve created a triple cube Valentine with lots of romantic innuendos! I really love this fun fold!

I cut the card base from CutCardStock Basis Red cardstock along with square panels from CutCardStock Bright Silver Foil and page of small journal cards in the kit. I added stickers from the sticker sheet and clear stickers from the upgrades.

Here’s another angled shot and a look at the back with plenty of room for a custom message and signature. And it folds flat for mailing!
