Hearts Galore

I wanted to make a card for Valentine's day so show at my workshop but when I went to go create it I realized I did not have any current heart type stamp sets. I know the shame huh?!?1 Well let's just say that will be corrected as soon as my order gets here on Monday! So even without any current sets I was able to create this little card!

Isn't it pretty? I like the non traditional colors and that I can give it to my hubby since it isn't girly. So how did I make this without any heart type stamps you ask? I took the A to Z mini background stamp and stamped it with Bravo Burgundy and punched t out with the Full Heart punch. All the little ones are punch using the Heart to Heart punch. The lighter blue hearts were made by mixing my shimmer paint with night of navy and bordering blue re-inkers and sponging them on paper before I punched them. Problem solved!! So don't forget about all the punches SU has to offer! Happy Stamping!
