Part of keeping warm in January (we woke up to about 4 inches of snow this morning), is thinking about February and Valentine's Day. I have been having lots of fun using the new stamp set Happy Heart Day to make up some Valentine's cards. Some of these will be included in our Valentine's Stamp-A-Stack on February 2nd (
email me for more information).
Here are seven cards I made. I took advantage of the 15% discount. When you purchase the Happy Heart Day set, 50 medium cello bags and a roll of 5/8" Real Red Grosgrain ribbon, you receive a roll of Regal Rose 5/8" grosgrain ribbon free!!
Just love this little mouse holding his heart!!

And another mouse - as you can see I can't resist him!!

I "paper pieced" the mouse. I stamped him with his heart first on the Bali Breeze designer paper - then stamped him again and cut him out and placed him over the designer paper heart!! Really easy and gives a neat effect!!
