Galentine's Day started in 2010

There is always something new popping up and in a 2010 episode of Parks and Rec, Galentine's Day became a thing! It is a day to celebrate female friendships or any friendships! This Falling Confetti Hearts background is the perfect stamp for this occasion. Paired with the Happy Galentine's day sentiment, it is the perfect, quick creation. My first card was done by placing Brushos on dry watercolor paper and then spritzing with water. The second two were done by placing ink onto acetate and doing the ink, spray, smash technique. The sentiment is up on dimensionals on all three cards.

Confetti Shaker Galentine's Day

 

Galentine's Day is February 13, the day before Valentine's Day, and it's a fun excuse to send happy mail to your friends.  I made this fun shaker card with a couple of new stamps from Technique Junkies.  

I started by embossing the Falling Confetti Hearts with white powder onto some red cardstock.  Then I took some plastic packaging and cut it larger than the red panel.  I taped three sides of the plastic to the back of the red panel, leaving one end open.  I added some clear sequins to the "pocket" and then taped the shaker completely all around the back of the red panel.  I stamped the Happy Galentine's Day onto some white cardstock, die cut it with an oval die, glued it to a black scalloped oval die cut and adhered it to the front of the shaker.  Then I used double-sided tape to adhere the shaker to a black card base.

This is such a fun and easy card to make.  The Happy Galentine's Day stamp pairs perfectly with the Falling Confetti Hearts.  Please feel free to use this code, TJ10Holly, when you shop at Technique Junkies.  You'll save 10% off your order and you'll have some fun new stamps to play with!

 

Happy Valentine's Day!

Hey there! Pam here today with a couple creations. This stamp is new from TJ and is called Blooming Heart and the sentiment, Happy Galentine's Day is new as well. Fabulous! I think it is more fun to shower our girlfriends with cards for Valentine's Day than it is the guys!

I stamped the heart on white card stock and colored in with my Zig watercolor brush markers. A random piece of designer paper as matting and some fun bow ribbon and rhinestones. The sentiment is on dimensionals.

These fabulous new releases are 15% off until January 8th. You can get an additional 10% off other items when you use my code TJ10Pam.

My next card using the lovely Dahlias stamp and the sentiment is from the Things I Want to Do, was stamped on a mono print background I made the other day. I placed some small drops of acrylic paint here and there and then folded the gel plate to get the white areas. The Dahlias were colored in with Zig watercolor brush markers, too. A couple circle punches for the sentiment and popped on dimensionals with burgundy matting.
