Valentine cards that I made for the troops

My challenge is to make 50 valentine cards for the troops. I pulled together all my papers that I thought would be used on a Valentine card.

I had a box of envelopes No. 6-3/4 (3-5/8 x 6-1/2) that I wanted to use. A few days before I made the cards I colored all of my images. I also had to design a card that would fit the envelope.















I wanted to use an 8-1/2 x 11 sheet of white cardstock for the base. So I was able to make 2 card bases from each sheet. I was also able to use my new scallop punch from stampin up on some of the cards. Of course, I use some of my stickles on a few of the cards.

18 cards and 32 more to go.

Looks like someone's been busy... Great cards. You always make beautiful cards. I really like the tic tac toe one. Is that a stamp? Good luck on reaching your goal. Know doubt you'll reach it. You should receive my cards tomorrow and if we're lucky, maybe today! patty p.
