Love Changes Everything

Going all lovey-dovey here today as it's Valentine's this week.  I recently won a giveaway at Tiddly Inks, so I've got some awesome new images to play with. 
For my CAS card I have used 'Changing Chameleon'. He's sooo cute and comes with a few accessories too.  I wanted a sentiment to reflect the image and decided on 'Love Changes Everything'.  He's got his little tongue wrapped around a heart, which is changing his colour to red.

  • Black gel pen

Steampunk Love Twisted Easel

I didn't want to do the traditional colours and styles for Valentine's this year, so as my husband and I both love Steampunk I went with that for my card. I haven't used the word Valentine's though, so this style could be used for any occasion.  I've made a circle double-twisted easel before, but never a square one, so I chose that as thought it fit quite well with the Steampunk theme. 

The materials I have used are:
  • Craft4Less - Bronze card
  • Papermania - Chronology 6x6 papers, brads & eyelets
  • X-Cut - Nesting dies Scalloped Heart, Tri-Boss folder Chronology Cogs
  • Sizzix dies - Flower & Leaf #5, Love Set #3
  • Core'dinations - Tim Holtz Kraft-Core Nostalgic Collection, Core Tags Darks
  • Charms were free in Crafts Beautiful magazine issue 254
  • Twine from my stash

Heart Bodice Kraft Card

As it's now February and Valentine's is just around the corner, I thought I'd make something inspired by love... with a little raunch thrown in!
I love lace-up bodices and thought my heart die would make a great version, tarted up with some lace and bling. I've kept the rest of the card really simple to show off the main element. 

For this card I have used the following materials:

  • Papermania - Kraft card, eyelets, Classical Handmade Papers (100% cotton)
  • Ribbon and gems from my stash
  • Lace from Hobbycraft
  • Whispers Permanents, black
  • Little Claire Designs outline stickers
