Be Mine, Tiny Valentine

This is a set of tiny Valentine cards. All four cards are 3"x3." I used pre-made cards from DCWVfor the card bases, I just trimmed them down to 3"x3." Two of them are glittery pink and two are glittery red. I cut some white cardstock at 2 3/4"x2 3/4." I stamped my sentiment, which is from Scrappy Moms Stamps on the bottom left corner of the white cardstock. I used red and pink inks. I then used my Cuttlebug and the Swiss Dots folder to emboss the white cardstock. I pulled out Beyond Birthdays, which is a cartridge that I haven't used in almost a year! The heart with the ribbon around it is from that cartridge and I cut it at 2 1/2." I then glittered the hearts, two in red and two in pink. I cut the ribbon layer and flocked them, again two in pink and two in red. I pieced them all together and used pop-dots to adhere them to the cards. There you go, a sweet and simple tiny Valentine! Enjoy!!

I made these cards for the following challenges:
365 Cards: "Day 336" - use a two word sentiment
Die Cuttin' Divas: anything goes
Fantabulous Cricut: 3"x3" Valentine card
Scrappy Moms Stamps: "Rock Princess" (I don't own this cartridge, so I used a heart from Beyond Birthdays that looks like the one tied with a bow on Rock Princess)
Whimsical Designs: use something old (I haven't used Beyond Birthdays in about a year)
My Craft Spot: anything goes
