Valentines- Post 1

Hi all! I've been busy making Valentines for my husband and kids the last few days and I will be sharing them over the next few days. First up is this pair of cards:

 I have done a very similar design before using this same set of masks. the masks make a 6x6 image. For these flowers, I used pink and red inks for the flowers, greens for the stems and yellow Stickles gel for the flower centers. Once the Stickles was dry, I cut the image in half and trimmed it down to fit on a card. For the smaller panel, I used the coordinating stamp and stamped it on some matching pink cardstock in white pigment ink and heat embossed it with pearl embossing powder. I trimmed that piece down to fit down the side of the card. For the sentiment, I used the insides from a Cricut cut that I used on a couple of other cards ( I will share those tomorrow. For the transition between the two panels, I used some white sparkly ribbon. The colors of these cards are inspired by the candy hearts challenge at Color Dare:

I used light and dark pink, green and yellow (Stickles). Thanks for  stopping by to check out my cards!
