10 Handmade Card Ideas to Say “I Love You”

Sneak Peek Day 4

August 8, 2015      Nichole Heady      38 Comments

Sneak-peek-10

Betsy Veldman does it again with the next addition to her Petite Places line-up.  We are completely in love with this crooked little house and all of it's little accessories!  Betsy has thought of every single detail you could possible want with this set.  She even has a new Scene It die collection to go along with it that you won't want to miss out on!

Sneak-peek-11

Lizzie Jones has a fun headstone set to add to the Halloween mix.  The sayings for the headstones are interchangeable and make it so fun to play around with different looks and combinations.  Anything made with these would be sure to illicit a smile or two, if not a chuckle!

Sneak-peek-12

Papertrey is all about making things more versatile, and Lizzie has done just that with this mini sentiment set add-on for the headstone set above.  With this handful of zingers you can use the headstones year round to create hilarious birthday cards for those special milestone birthdays. So much cleverness here that we can't wait for you to see!

    Just when you think that Halloween couldn’t be more fun, along comes Papertrey (Betsy and Lizzie with those funny bones), and the holiday reaches new levels. These are the first Halloween sets that have tempted me in a long time. (I have no children in my life, so while I love cute, edgy and witty gets my vote!)
