Stampin’ Up

Clean and Simple Valentine

When I saw the Global Design Project had the theme of Love for this week’s challenge, I knew my husband, Steve, was about to get a Valentine.

I was blessed to become best friends with my husband when we were 12 years old.  He asked me to marry him when I was 14 and we got married at 22.  I’ll save the 14 year old marriage proposal story for another day…

Steve is still the love of my life 40 years later so this shiny, sparkly Valentine is for him.

Yep, I did cut out the center of the Red Foil Sheet to make the heart for the envelope and because Stampin’ Up! Foil Sheets are more expensive than regular cardstock, but oh so worth it!  The red hearts on the card are punched from Red Glimmer Paper.

Awesome Friend Birthday!

“You’re The Friend Every One wishes They Had.” I have been blessed with several friends that I feel this way about.  A couple of them have birthdays coming up.  I bought this stamp set, “Friendly Wishes” because I knew I needed this particular stamp.

It is freezing cold in Iowa today.  Abby, Steve and I went to our kickboxing class this morning and the temperature was 2 degrees and well below zero with the wind chill.  Last week we were in Cayman Brac and it was 84 degrees.  I can confirm there’s a huge difference between 84 degrees and 2 degrees!

Hope you have a great day!

Blessings,

Beth 🙂
