Hi Everyone,

Valentine’s Day is nearly upon us and I love the holiday so I was making one Valentine card after another. So, I have a backup of handmade cards for the cherished heart day.

Here is one of them, created using the Penny Black Red Blush stamp set and the Hero Arts Heart Infinity dies. The rose and bud are so pretty in this stamp, I knew I had to make something. My only regret was I didn’t get it done sooner!
