Here we are with the second Papertrey Ink group post for December...today focusing on the ever so sweet and lovable, Love & Marriage stamp set. This set covers the sweet on you, be my Valentine, will you be mine, together forever categories beautifully and I had so much fun jumping into Valentine's day with this project.
I created a pocket full of love notes using Papertrey Ink's Favor It Box 2 die, Aqua Mist cardstock, and a handful of white gift enclosures, each embellished with the new Love & Marriage stamp set, Heart Border die, and Filigree Border die. I love, love, love this color combination for Christmas, but wanted to give it a test-run for Valentine's Day and yep, sure enough...I love it!
I attached a stamped tag using the 2010 Love Tags stamp set by clipping it on to the favor box with an embellished clothespin.
I used Sweet Blush Satin, Aqua Mist Swiss Dot Satin, and Soft Stone Bitty Dot Satin ribbon to tie around each envelope.
Sweet Blush buttons, Melissa Frances pom pom trim, and scrunched seam binding from My Craft Spot were also used to embellish each envelope.
The paper used is from Melissa Frances, Girls' Paperie, and My Mind's Eye and the sweet foil hearts are just treasures from my stash.
Thanks so much for visiting. Each design team member has created something special to share with you as well:
these are lovely. such sweet valentines. always love your details. enjoy your week.

I think about half of all arranged marriages turn out happily, and half don’t… and in your culture it is exactly the opposite. I always hate it when my students are smarter than me
