VIDEO: Quick Mini Valentines

When I was little, I used to obsess over all things mini – mini stapler, mini tape, etc., – and so the new Love Note Pair Fancy Dies were pretty much love at first sight for me (no pun intended ;)).

These dies make creating adorable Valentines ridiculously quick and easy!

For my envelopes, I die cut them out of kraft cardstock , and created little “wax” seals by inking up images from Sealed With a Kiss in Versamark , then Red Royal , and stamping it on some red cardstock . I then added some clear embossing powder , zapped it with my heat gun , and oila! Cute little seals!

For my notes, I die some thin copy paper and stamped some messages using Love Notes and Sealed With a Kiss, with some Bubblegum and Red Royal ink.

I used copy paper for several reasons, my primary reason being that the thinness makes it a little easier to slip into the envelope. However, it would be a good choice to use if you’re mass producing these Valentines (and why not?! they’re so easy to make!) because copy paper is cheaper than regular cardstock, and you can cut two, probably three, and maybe even four sheets at a time.
