R2G Card Kit - Valentines - Owl Heart Circle

Do all Valentine's card need to be pink or red?
I don't think so.  I found this blue and green round tag freebie at Poppies at Play.  I sized it to 2" and cut it with one of the smooth circle Spellbinders nestabilities.  Then I cut a heart circle frame with SB - Heart Circles nestabilities which was perfect for the 2" circle.  I added a 2" strip of black card stock layered onto a wider strip of white card stock.  This was placed onto a blue card.  Once the owl greeting was adhered to the green heart circle it was adhered to the card front with 3D foam tape.  I thought the sentiment was great!

R2G Card Kit - Valentine - Paper Heart Doily

This is the first card design of a large order of Ready 2 Go Valentine card kits I have just finished preparing.  It was an order for 100 card kits. Valentine is not my usual thing so creating these card designs was a bit of a stretch for me.

You will remember these doily hearts from this posting.  I created a polka dot background in black that I printed directly onto the card.  This card is 4.25 x 11 and therefore has the fold at the top of the card.  I wanted to add a bit of black to the heart to help tie it all together. I used a Stampin Up Itty Bitty Background stamp with Versafine Onyx Black. I placed my adhesive on the solid centre of the heart and placed it at the top of card. I dyed the thread at the same time as the hearts so they match perfectly.  I added a black thread as well which I wrapped around the card front and knotted on the front.  I added a metal heart charm before I tied the second knot. I trimmed the thread ends and added my insert.
