Hello! This Valentine card came together as a true mashup, blending newer products with well-loved favorites from my stash. I used the Spellbinders January 2026 Large Die of the Month frame pairing it with the Simon Hurley Birthday Bear for a cheerful focal point. A winter-themed Simon Hurley die set and several older Valentine-themed die sets filled in the details. I talked about my fondness for product mashups in this post.
-
- Create an A2-size card base from Raven cardstock.
- Cut the frame with dies in the Large Die of the Month set from Blush cardstock. Use a die in the Parcel & Post Heart Decorations set to cut the letters from the frame and inlay with letters cut from Classic White cardstock. Back with patterned paper and add the assembly to the card base.
- Cut the panda with dies in the Birthday Bear set. I previously shared a birthday bear card created with this same set. Assemble. Use the North Pole Sentiments set to cut the hat and scarf. Add to the assembled panda.
- Cut a banner and heart with dies in the Love on the Rocks set and attach to stakes cut with a die in the Parcel & Post Heart Decorations set.
- Add the bear and accessories to the frame.
