I don't have all of my Valentines cards made. I don't make many so I don't have a large collection of stamps or dies for this holiday. Plus I generally manage to hold back from buying more because I just don't have a need.
I did get inspiration from the current Tic Tac Toe challenge and was able to use products already in my stash. I saw the "wreath" in their grid and knew immediately what to do. I love Stampin' Up's Wreath Builder dies. I used it for Thanksgiving and Christmas and then tucked it away. But just seeing the word "wreath" reminded me that it has other holidays too. So here's what I did with it.
From wreath I went up and down to "pink" and "sparkle". (The deep color is Flirty Flamingo which photographed more coral than pink - but I call it pink in real life.)
Thank you to the Tic Tac Toe Challenge for getting me motivated to start Valentines!
