Create Your Own Floral Valentine Designer Series Paper with Heart Happiness

I really like the Heart Happiness stamp set in the 2018 Occasions catalog. Let's be honest, there haven't been many stamp sets lately devoted to the heart shape. So, I was overjoyed to see an entire stamp set filled with hearts in the 2018 Occasions catalog!

I love the different sizes of and the variety of pattern on the hearts. Hearts are fantastic for Valentine's Day, anniversaries, and weddings. The floral heart stamp featured in the center of this sweet is one of my favorite stamps in this set.

However, without greeting stamps, an all image set can seem tricky to use on its own at first. I recommend using stamps in the set that work well together, that have the same style, the same thickness of lines, or a similar shape. Then pair those stamps with other greeting stamps.

Check out how nicely the rose, small leaf, and the floral heart pair well with each other. All three of those stamps together would make a fabulous card!

For the front of the card, I randomly stamped the rose image and the small leaf image all a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Whisper White cardstock with Basic Black Archival ink.

Next I used Stampin' Write Markers to color in the rose and the leaves. Voila! Your own Designer Series Paper!

Heart Happiness also shines on the inside of this card with a row of roses climbing up the side of the card! All of the Heart Happiness stamps can be use to accent and decorate your card fronts, insides, and even envelopes.

I hope you give Heart Happiness a try!

Thanks for stopping by!
