- Stampin' Up! Heart Shaped Stamp Set and Dies
- January-April 2025 Mini Catalog, Sale-A-Bration and Online Exclusives
- New: Hello Spring February Paper Pumpkin Kit
When it comes to Valentine's Day, the usual suspects--pinks, reds, and whites--often take center stage. But why not break free from tradition and let your creativity shines? This year, I decided to craft a Valentine's Day card that speaks volumes of love, but with a palette that's anything but ordinary. Enter Highland Heather and Old Olive, paired with the timeless elegance of Basic White. Together these colors create a card that's as unique as the people I hold dear. If you've been following my creative journey recently, you'll know I've been absolutely smitten with Stampin' Up! latest offerings, especially during their Sale-A-Bration event. Today, I'm thrilled to showcase the Heart Shaped Stamp Set and Dies, a versatile duo that's perfect for crafting heartfelt messages. But I didn't stop there-- I also raided my stash of craft supplies to being in some older favorites that complement these new treasures beautifully.
The color Palette: A breath of Fresh Air
Instead of the usual Valentine hues, I opted for a refreshing combination of Highland Heather (a soft, dreamy purple) and Old Olive (a rich, earthy green), accented with crisp Basic White. This unexpected pairing feels modern yet timeless, and it's a wonderful way to express love in a way that feels fresh and personal.
The Heart of the Design
The Heart Shaped Stamp set took center stage as I stamped delicate hearts onto the card's Basic White Image layer. I used Old Olive Ink for one heart and Highland Heather Ink for the other, slightly overlapping them to create a sense of depth and connection. These stamped hearts became the focal point of the card, symbolizing the intertwining of two lives. To add texture and dimension I reached for the Plater Painting 3D Embossing Folder. Running a layer of Highland Heather Cardstock through the Stampin' Up! Cut and Emboss Machine, I created a beautifully textured background that adds a tactile element to the design. It's the kind of detail that makes you want to run your fingers over the card, feeling the love in every groove. The base of the card is made from Highland Heather Cardstock. After layering the embossed layer of Highland Heather onto the basecard, I added a piece of retired patterned Highland Heather Subtles 6" X 6" Designer Series Paper, creating a monochromatic backdrop for the stamped hearts and sentiment.

The Sentiment: A Message of Love
Next, I used the Heart Shaped Dies to cut out a sentiment label from Basic white Cardstock. I chose a heartfelt message from the stamp set and stamped it in Highland Heather Ink, ensuring it stood out against the clean white background. To make the sentiment truly pop, I adhered it to the card using Mini Dimensionals, giving it a subtle lift that adds a touch of elegance.
No card is complete without a few finishing touches. Using the Heart Shaped Dies, I cut out a delicate Highland Heather flower and paired it with Old Olive leaves, creating a charming accent that ties the color scheme together. To add a final touch of sophistication, I scattered Highland Heather Pearls across the card. these classy embellishments catch the light and add a sense of refinement, making the card feel like a true keepsake.
