Good morning, y’all It’s Thursday – which means it’s time for another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. We’ve got a sketch challenge to work with and I’m excited to see what everyone brings to the table. I just know you’re going to see a ton of awesome-ness on the hop today!
I decided to make another Valentine’s day card for you (it’ll be here before you can blink!). Our sketch was perfect (IMHO) for the new Valentine’s Day stamp – coming on 6 Jan in the new Jan-Apr 2026 Mini Catalog. I added the Made with Love DSP (also in the new catalog) – and some black (a fave with these colors). Take a look-see:
And here’s that sketch!
I started by adhering a piece of the new Made with Love DSP on a Basic Black mat for the card front.
Using the next-to-largest Textured Notes die to cut out a Basic Black mat – which I adhered at an angle to the card front with Liquid Glue.
I used the same next-to-largest Textured Notes die to cut out a piece of the Made with Love DSP.
I rubbed it well with my Embossing Buddy and then stamped the Valentine’s Day sentiment in Versamark Ink.
I sprinkled it with black Basics WOW Embossing Powder and heat set it with my Heat Tool.
When it was cool, I used Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the panel to the card front.
Using the Endless Love die, I cut out some Basic White hearts.
I adhered the hearts to the card front with Liquid Glue and the card front was done.
On the inside, I stamped two sentiments from Endless Love in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped a pretty heart image from the set in Strawberry Slush ink.
I used Liquid Glue to adhere the panel to the inside of a Basic White card base, popped the card front on with Stampin’ Dimensionals – and the card was done!
My Basic White Medium Envelope got the Endless Love heart on the front…
…and more of the Made with Love DSP on the envelope flap.
Et Voila! I love this big, beautiful sentiment from the Valentine’s Day set – it truly does the lionshare of the work on any card! Add some pretty paper – like this from the Made with Love DSP – and maybe some Endless Love die cut hearts – and…it’s ready to go in the mail to someone special!
I hope you like!
