You're the Apple of my Pie

 I made this Valentine for my pie-loving son using Spellbinders Pie Perfection Collection Dies. Looking at it now, I wish I had used less busy paper in the background, but he already received it and loved it, so my job is done!

LOVE

 

It's time for a new challenge at Just Us Girls. It's Word Week this week, the word is LOVE and Elizabeth is our host.

For my card, I used Hero Arts Love & Florals die set that I bought around Valentines Day last year, and never broke it out. Since Elizabeth's chosen word was love, I die cut a white rectangle and backed it with Echo Park patterned paper. I die cut the flowers and colored them with Distress Oxide inks. I popped up the white panel with Fun Foam onto an embossed panel, adhered that to a white card base, and my card was complete.

This month we are joined by Denise Morgans of The Crafty Den as Guest Designer. Please head on over to the Just Us Girls Challenge Blog to see what Denise and the rest of the Design Team have made to spark your creativity. Come play with us!

Time for a new challenge at Just Us Girls. It's Color Week this week, and Sue is our host. 

I am knee deep into Valentines right now, so I decided to go that route with my card. I arranged strips of varying sizes in reds, pinks and grays on a piece of white cardstock, trimmed it down, then die cut it with a scalloped edge die. I cut a heart in the center, created a shaker, and finished it off with a sentiment that is perfect for my Beatle-lovin' Valentine...
