make valentines with gelli prints

I've got a three-fer fer ya this two-fer weekend.

Huh?

Well, it's Valentine's weekend of course. And in my 'hood it's also Fastnacht weekend - Mardi Gras. Not much going on here compared to normal years, but I'm sure enjoying the live streams some of the different groups are putting on. It's kinda fun to sit on the couch in sweats and sing along with the Fastnacht hits without the costume/makeup/yelling across the table in filled-to-the-brim halls/hangovers stress of a normal Fastnacht! 

Fastnacht in a nutshell if you'd like a little taste...

And the three-fer? I've got three Valentines made using up some gelli prints. Thanks for the challenge, Birte. These were leftover after this cardmaking session. Better to use 'em than stash 'em away again, right?

First up, for DD. Fun fact... DD die cut and embossed that smaller pink heart when she was little. I saved it ;)


This card is going to:
CAS on Friday - Love
Colorhues Challenge - red/pink
TimeOut Challenge - #181



This card is joining the fun at:
Daring Cardmakers - Share the Love


STAMPlorations Bubbles and Leaf Prints stencil

And this card goes to:
Happy Little Stampers - Stencil

So. As card front, as die cut shape or just leftover strips as your background... put your gelli prints to good use! And HELAU!!!!

I like your philosophy of using it rather than stashing it. Clean it up right away!! And your cards turned out great! I love that you used the heart your daughter made when she was little. She'll get a kick out of that!

Thanks for sharing at Cut it Up for our All You Need is Love challenge!

These all are so fun and unique in their own ways. Each one is so carefully designed using the same amazing paper! I love each one but the last two steal the show for me. I think it is because we can see so much of the paper. Thanks for playing along with us at Color Hues.

Beautiful cards Maria - the first one is stunning in it's simplicity. It really caught my eye at TO. How lovely that your daughter die cut the heart and you kept it!
