Tweet Valentine Wishes Mini Slimline


Hello my crafty friends!  Today I'm sharing a 'tweet' Mini Slimline Valentine card that uses papers and elements from Doodlebug Design. I have really been enjoying this 'Love Notes' collection! The Slimline die with the three windows is from Taylored Expressions and is one I use a fair bit. I love how easy it is to customize. 

Here I backed two of the windows with light teal card stock and the centre one with red - all of them scraps.  Then I just layered on the embellishments with thin foam tape to keep the bulk down. There are white gel pen highlights, and of course I went over the eyes with a black glaze pen for sparkle and shine.


I didn't add a sentiment to the front, so this card doesn't have to be for Valentine's Day. On the inside, the rainbow heart and strip were leftover packing tape pieces from another card I made last month. So in addition to using up scraps, I was able to use up those leftover bits too. Yeah!

Finally one of the sweet resin hearts which I am also enjoying and this card was finished.

If I don't send it out for Valentine's, I can hang onto it and be ahead for next year and add a sentiment to the front at that point. Or I can send it out in February for Happy Mail!  I added a white panel inside for stability, cut with a Mini Slimline die set from Kat Scrappiness (linked below) - and you can see the nice embossed edge you get.
