Gold is a hot trend right now and this card pairs up a lot of gold elements with the Language of Love to create a Valentine’s or even a Wedding card.

I adapted an idea I found on Pinterest.  Here are the elements on my card – some are the same as the one I found and some are different.

  • Very Vanilla card base
  • Very Vanilla layer – attach two strips of gold washi tape from the Watercolor Wonder Designer Washi Tape – a TIP for you here – line up the card stock on your Grid Paper first and then use the lines as a guide to get the Washi Tape straight across your card stock
  • Cut the XOXO from Gold Foil Sheet using the Circle Card Thinlits Die collection
  • Cut a large heart out of Very Vanilla card stock using the Scallop Heart Embosslit (well I thought that was still current but I can’t seem to find it online in the store)
  • Stamp the strip of hearts from the Language of Love stamp set using the GOLD Encore ink.  Punch out each heart with the small heart punch.
  • Create a double bow with Gold Baker’s Twine – I used a little magic bow maker that I found on Pinterest – I made a few so that I’d have them to use in class.  I need to get a picture of it and share it with you later.

Have a great day!  I’m writing this early in case we get a lot of ice and lose power over the next couple of days.
