Today is the January Papertrey Ink Blog hop and Nichole gave us this photo for inspiration.
Love the black background with white and red accents - and since I'm making Valentines for a sale at church - that's what I made for this blog hop! I made two cards and the only difference is the die I used for the white frame. Here is the first one I made - the frame is from Tag Sale #10, the LOVE is a Wonderful Words die and the flowers are Bitty Button Stacks dies. The LOVE and 2 of the flowers are popped up on foam dots. I bent up the edges on some of the blooms as well. The scallop edge of this frame makes this card feel feminine I think.
I used all the same dies for this second card accept the white frame is Heart Squared and this looks more masculine to me with that one change.
I can't wait to see how everyone else was inspired by the beautiful cookies! The hop is taking place over on Nichole's blog.
Accessories: Dies - Tag Sale #10, Bitty Button Stacks, Wonderful Words: Love, Heart Squared - PTI, foam dots, black rhinestones.

Oh these are fabulous Julia! My kind of cards! I love the simplicity, but yet layered so beautifully! The white frames are really a great addition!
Yay, Julia, your cards work for any gender and are beautiful. The white frames really pop with the red and black. Now I know what to do with my new-to-me Button Stacks. TFS!
