Hello! I was recently a guest on the Spellbinders blog sharing two cards featuring the Open House Valentines die set, part of the expanding Open House product line. I’d love for you to head over to see how I decorated two doors for Valentine’s Day.

Spellbinders Be Bold Color Block Love You
Hello from the cold and snowy Pacific Northwest. Today I am sharing a CAS Valentine’s Day card created with the recently-released Be Bold Color Block Love You die set at Spellbinders. The Be Bold Color Block collection features die sets with which you can quickly and easily create bold and graphic greetings. I previously shared cards created with a Christmas die from the collection in this post.
With the Be Bold Color Block Love You die set, I cut the “LOVE” letters from colored paper in red and three shades of pink. I adhered the letters to Snowdrift cardstock for stability. I die-cut the “you” from white glitter cardstock which I also adhered to Snowdrift cardstock.
I taped the “LOVE” letters on the back and attached the assembly to blue paper (from the Echo Park Celebrate Winter collection).
