“Got Love” for a soft and pretty Valentine’s Day Card? Today’s Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge (MOJO226), is a perfect starting point. Round or Square? You decide and have fun!
STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:
- Stampin’ Up! Nursery Nest Designer Series Paper (DSP) goes “beyond baby.” It’s charming for birthdays and valentines, too.
- Those sweet “scallops on the scallops” were created using one of the Adorning Accents Edgelits Dies (new in the Stampin’ Up! Occasions Mini Catalog).
- Marina Mist1/8″ Taffeta Ribbon slips through the button holes for a polished finish. Watch my demonstrator tutorial for tips.
- I pulled a few stitches at each end of the Blushing Bride Pleated Satin Ribbon (Stampin’ Up! Occasions Mini Catalog) so that it would be easier to adhere and wrap flat.
- My square version of today’s Mojo Sketch measures 5 x 5″. A coordinating pattern from Nursery Nest DSP jazzes up the flap of the 5.5″ Whisper White Medium Square Envelope. Just adhere DSP to the flap and carefully snip away the excess with Paper Snips.
- The Pear Pizzazz square with the personalized Family Tree stamp is an incentive for recipients to share a handmade card a second time. You’re seeing the back of a removable interior message. Learn more about my Regift and Recycle Idea (video).

Somebody is thinking outside the box! I agree with Kadie in Arizona, who would’ve “thunk” it! I wouldn’t have! 🙂 I do love the colors and I love how you’ve made me “think outside the box” when it comes to using certain DSP in the future! Another wonderful card Mary!
