Birdie Valentine

Hello from design team member, Heidi!  I am so glad you are here because I have this very sweet card I am excited to share.

Click on photos to enlarge.

I colored up several of these Fashion Warbler stamps the other day.  I have the small version but there is a large stamp in the JFF store too.  I decided I would make one into a Valentine.

I added a thick layer of glossy accents over top of the colored bird.  After it dried completely, I trimmed him out.  I thought this patterned paper and a hot pink cardstock was the perfect way to turn this all-occasion bird stamp into a Valentine.  The hearts are confetti I saved from a party.  

The sentiment is from Unmounted Sentiment Sheet 3 - such a cute sentiment, too! (It can also be purchased separately.)  

Have you started any Valentines yet?  Consider using some of your everyday stamps to make some fresh and fun cards.  Thanks for stopping by, and don't forget the JFF January Challenge, it is anything goes this month!

Autumn Blessing Tag & Happy Autumn Card

Hi everyone!  This is my first blog post for Just For Fun Stamps.  I am super excited to be sharing my fun creations with you all.  Today I have made for you an Autumn duo.  I used the Fashion Warbler Small stamp for both of these projects.  I also used the Happy Autumn stamp for the card.  I will provide you with full details at the end of this post.
I don't know about everyone else, but fall is my most favorite time of year.  I love the crisp air and the changing colors.  So I wanted to use the fall colors and the bird stamp because they are just friendly and inviting like fall is.  I hope you enjoy these projects and that they inspire you to make something fun for fall.
Happy Autumn!
Heidi
